By the combination of ,-bis(carboxymethyl)-pyromellitic diimide (HCMPMD, ) and zinc ions, a novel PMD-based coordination polymer (CP), [Zn(CMPMD)(DMF)]·0.5DMF () (DMF = ,-dimethylformamide), has been prepared and characterized. and exhibit completely different photochromic properties, which are mainly reflected in the photoresponsive rate (5 s for vs 1 s for ) and coloration contrast (from colorless to light green for vs green for ). This phenomenon should be attributed to the introduction of zinc ions and the consequent formation of the distinct interfacial contacts of electron donors (EDs) and electron acceptors (EAs) (d = 3.404 and 3.448 Å for vs d = 3.343, 3.359, 3.398, and 3.495 Å for ), suggesting a subtle modulating effect of metal ions on interfacial contacts, photoinduced intermolecular electron transfer (PIET) and photochromic behaviors. Interestingly, the photochromic performance of can be enhanced after the removal of coordinated DMF, which might be ascribed to the decrease of the distance of EDs/EAs caused by lattice shrinkage, which further improves the efficiency of PIET. Meanwhile, displays rapid electrochromic behavior with an obvious reversible color change from colorless to green, which can be used in an electrochromic device. This work develops a new type of EA for the construction of stimuli-responsive functional materials with excellent dual photo-/electrochromic properties.

The fabrication of molecular crystalline materials with fast, multistimuli-responsive behavior and the construction of the corresponding structure-activity relationship are of extraordinary significance for the development of smart materials. In this context, three multistimuli-responsive functional metal-organic polyhedra (MOP), {[Dy(bcbp)(NO)(HO)]·Cl·(NO)·HO} (), {[Dy(bcbp)(HO)]Cl} (), and {[Eu(bcbp)(HO)]Cl·HO} (; bcbp = 1,1'-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium), were successfully prepared and characterized. All of the compounds exhibit rapid and reversible photochromic and electrochromic dual-responsive behaviors.

Stable stimulus-responsive materials are highly desirable due to their widespread potential applications and growing demand in recent decades. Despite the fact that viologen derivatives have long been known as excellent photochromic and electrochromic materials, the development of stable viologen-based multifunctional smart materials with short coloration times remains an exciting topic. To obtain photochromic and electrochromic dual responsive materials, embedding the viologen ligand into a robust metal oxide cluster to increase its stability and sensitivity is an effective strategy.
