Cholesterol-aided construction of distinct self-organized materials from a luminescent gold(Ⅰ)-isocyanide complex exhibiting mechanochromic luminescence

摘要

A choiesterol-furationalized gold(Ⅰ)-isocyanide complex exhibiting mechanochromic luminescence properties was self-organized into distinct microscopic structures with different photoluminescence properties through vapor-diffusion of a poor solvent into its dichloromethane solution. The structure-optical property relationship of these micrestructures could be related to the mechanically induced phase transition.
