Interested in #Polymer #Mechanochemistry? #Mechanochromism? #Naphthopyran? Well, do we have a treat for you! 😊 Hot off the press Chemical Science. doi.org/10.1039/D3SC03… Proud of this scholarly paper spearheaded by the indefatigable Molly McFadden.


Nice way to end the week with a paper accepted in J. Am. Chem. Soc. in which we show a new force-controlled release mechanism via a double retrocycloaddition! Great work from Kamil Suwada Alice Ieong and Herman! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…


Congratulations to the group for opening our business in the Year of🐉with a new BCH mechanophore published in J. Am. Chem. Soc.. By stretching different C-C bonds with external forces, we are able to elicit diverse mechanochemical reactions from the BCH scaffold. bit.ly/3uxNT5N


Check out our new comprehensive study of a gaseous signaling molecule releasing mechanophore using the diradical-elimination cascade strategy. This is a highly collaborative work of The Moore Group with Craig Group and the Kulik Group under MONET-CCI pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja…

I'm very pleased to share our work on the force-controlled release of small molecules with a rotaxane actuator. Published today in nature thanks to the incredible work of Lei Chen and Rob Nixon! nature.com/articles/s4158… #OpenAccess The University of Manchester UoM Chemistry


Push it, push it good... with a rotaxane actuator as it leads to better mechanophore activation! Read this great work from Lei Chen in John Callahan now: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja… #openacces #mechanochemistry Mechanochemistry Papers Salt N Pepa


A powerful model to predict transition force. Congrats to Yunyan Sun Ilia Kevlishvili Jeffrey S. Moore

Congrats to the whole team @aprahamian Baihao Shao & Heyifei on this remarkable achievement in leveraging the E/Z isomerization of hydrazones for ion transport.

Please check out our work J. Am. Chem. Soc. on Multicolor and White Emission from Mechanically Caged AIEgens. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/ja… I am glad it is also selected as the ACS Editor’s Choice! This work was done with a phenomenal undergrad Kecheng Wang who will apply for grad school soon


Check out my last piece of work in my PhD with Jeffrey S. Moore! We developed a “cartoon picture” ( a triangle!) to make sense of mechanochemistry under tension. Special thanks to all the reviewers who helped to greatly improved the manuscript! doi.org/10.1021/jacs.4….



You are very welcome! It was a pleasure to read and include your excellent work in this perspective. Please check it out nature.com/articles/s4155… @pengliuchem @Bruns_Lab Nature Chemistry

Honored that our work has been highlighted as a 🔥Hot Paper 🔥in Angewandte Chemie! Here are some insights inspired by the dynamometer demonstration.
