Herein, we report three crystals of styryl quinoline derivatives. All these three crystals are mechanically flexible crystals, isostructural and also all of them comply with the common underlying features for elas- tic flexibility like absence of slip plane, criss-cross packing arrangement of neighbouring tapes, presence of weak and dispersive interactions such as halogen bonds, hydrogen bonds etc. The interactions facilitate easy movement of molecules under application of pressure thereby imparting elasticity. Further, the crys- tals were found to be blue light emitting making them promising candidates for optical waveguides. The optical properties were combined with flexibility by using crystal engineering approach towards achiev- ing various applications such as flexible OLEDs, optical waveguides, flexible optoelectronics etc.
We obtained concomitant dimorphic forms of Anthracene Schiffbase (N-(anthracen-9-yl methylene)-2,5- dichloroaniline) from hexane solvent. Two polymorphs can be differentiated by their morphology and mechanical properties. One form is long acicular type and elastically bendable while another form is block shaped and brittle in nature. Mechanical property is attributed to underlying crystal packing. Hirsh- feld analysis and energy framework calculations were done to corroborate structure-property correlation of two forms.
