Stimuli-Responsive Materials: Bottom-Up Control of Material Properties by De Novo Molecular Design Jarugu Narasimha Moorthy1; 1DEPT OF CHEMISTRY, IIT KANPUR, IIT Kanpur, India; PAPER: 192/AdvancedMaterials/Regular (Oral) SCHEDULED: 14:25/Wed./Grego (50/3rd) ABSTRACT: The properties of bulk organic materials are determined by organization of their constituents' molecules. Implicit within is the fact that the structures of organic molecules that make up the bulk materials crucially control the properties of the latter. We believe that organic structure is essential to control both reactivity as well as molecular organization, and hence the properties of materials. I will demonstrate how organic compounds may be maneuvered by a diligent design to control photoreactivity[1] and molecular self-assembly to develop functional materials.[2] As to the latter in particular, I will present our very recent de novo approaches to the development of stimuli-responsive 2D metal-organic framework nanosheets (MONs).[3] References: [1] Moorthy, J.
