English Multiresponsive materials that display predefined photoluminescence color changes upon exposure to different stimuli are attractive candidates for advanced sensing schemes. Herein, we report a cyano-substituted oligo(p-phenylene vinylene) (cyano-OPV) derivative that forms five different solvent-free solid-state molecular assemblies, luminescence properties of which change upon thermal and mechanical stimulation. Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis suggested that tolyl groups introduced at the termini of solubilizing side-chains of the cyano-OPV play a pivotal role in its solid-state arrangement. Viewed more broadly, this report shows that the introduction of competing intermolecular interactions into excimer-forming chromophores is a promising design strategy for multicolored thermo- and mechanoresponsive luminescent materials.
