Abstract

We report herein the mechanically induced luminescent color change of a molecule with two anthracene moieties and a rhodamine 6G unit at both sides of a branched amidoamine spacer. Different emission properties of this compound are due to the π-π overlap of anthracene moieties and the ring-opening reaction of rhodamine 6G.
