1.
Bowser B, Brown C, Meisner J, Kouznetsova T, Martinez T, Craig S
Chem Sci . 2025 Mar; PMID: 40051651
Symmetry forbidden reactions are notoriously difficult to study experimentally, for the simple reason that their competing symmetry allowed pathways typically dominate. Covalent polymer mechanochemistry offers an opportunity to broaden access...

Melvin S, Yao Y, Huang X, Bell R, Kemmerling R, Kevlishvili I, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2025 Feb; 147(7):6006-6015. PMID: 39904515
The tearing of a polymer network arises from mechanochemically coupled bond-breaking events in the backbone of a polymer chain. An emerging research area is the identification of molecular strategies for...

Zhang C, Kouznetsova T, Zhu B, Sweeney L, Lancer M, Gitsov I, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2025 Jan; 147(3):2502-2509. PMID: 39793028
Understanding structure-mechanical activity relationships (SMARs) in polymer mechanochemistry is essential for the rational design of mechanophores with desired properties, yet SMARs in noncovalent mechanical transformations remain relatively underexplored. In this...

Huang X, Kevlishvili I, Craig S, Kulik H
Inorg Chem . 2024 Dec; 64(1):380-392. PMID: 39714959
Transition metal mechanophores exhibiting force-activated spin-crossover are attractive design targets, yet large-scale discovery of them has not been pursued due in large part to the time-consuming nature of trial-and-error experiments....

Horst M, Holm S, Valenta L, Kouznetsova T, Yang J, Burns N, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2024 Nov; 146(47):32651-32659. PMID: 39535496
When multiple reaction steps occur before thermal equilibration, kinetic energy from one reaction step can influence overall product distributions in ways that are not well predicted by transition state theory....

Qin K, Herzog-Arbeitman A, Zou W, Chakraborty S, Kristufek S, Husted K, et al.
Adv Mater . 2024 Sep; 36(44):e2406600. PMID: 39258368
Thermoset toughness and deconstructability are often opposing features; simultaneously improving both without sacrificing other mechanical properties (e.g., stiffness and tensile strength) is difficult, but, if achieved, could enhance the usage...

Wang Z, Wang S, Jiang J, Hu Y, Nakajima T, Maeda S, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2024 May; 146(19):13336-13346. PMID: 38697646
In recent decades, more than 100 different mechanophores with a broad range of activation forces have been developed. For various applications of mechanophores in polymer materials, it is crucial to...

Wakefield 4th H, Melvin S, Jiang J, Kevlishvili I, Siegler M, Craig S, et al.
Chem Commun (Camb) . 2024 Apr; 60(36):4842-4845. PMID: 38619444
Second row elements in small- and medium-rings modulate strain. Herein we report the synthesis of two novel oligosilyl-containing cycloalkynes that exhibit angle-strain, as observed by X-ray crystallography. However, the angle-strained...

Sun Y, Neary W, Huang X, Kouznetsova T, Ouchi T, Kevlishvili I, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2024 Apr; 146(15):10943-10952. PMID: 38581383
Polymers that release small molecules in response to mechanical force are promising candidates as next-generation on-demand delivery systems. Despite advancements in the development of mechanophores for releasing diverse payloads through...

Hu Y, Wang L, Kevlishvili I, Wang S, Chiou C, Shieh P, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2024 Mar; 146(14):10115-10123. PMID: 38554100
Hydrogen fluoride (HF) is a versatile reagent for material transformation, with applications in self-immolative polymers, remodeled siloxanes, and degradable polymers. The responsive generation of HF in materials therefore holds promise...
