Light-induced conformational variability enabling [2+2] cycloaddition beyond Schmidt's criteria: unlocking new horizons for photomechanical molecular crystals
Topological [2+2] cycloaddition of halogenated styrylpyrylium takes place in crystals even when the distances between olefins exceed 4.2 Å due to the transient proximity induced by the conformational variability upon irradiation.
