Mechanofluorochromism (MFC) and mechanoluminescence (ML) materials have garnered significant attention from researchers due to their potential applications in anti-counterfeiting, optical recording, photodynamic therapy, bioimaging, stress sensing, display technology, and ink-free printing paper. Among the various building blocks utilized in these materials, phenothiazine (PTZ) has emerged as a widely employed fundamental component owing to its distinctive electronic and optical properties as well as its facile modification capabilities. Summarizing the recent progress of PTZ derivatives and analogues in this field holds practical significance. In this review article, we classify over one hundred compounds into a few classes based on the positions of substituents and provide detailed descriptions of their contributions to MFC and ML research respectively. This comprehensive review aims to offer theoretical insights and practical examples for researchers engaged in designing and developing new phenothiazine functional materials while serving as a bridge for further exploration of MFC or ML studies.
机械荧光变色（MFC）和机械发光（ML）材料因其在防伪、光学记录、光动力疗法、生物成像、应力传感、显示技术和无墨印刷纸等方面的潜在应用而受到研究人员的广泛关注。在这些材料中使用的各种结构单元中，吩噻嗪（PTZ）因其独特的电子和光学性质以及易于修饰的能力，已成为一种广泛应用的基本成分。总结PTZ衍生物和类似物在该领域的最新进展具有实际意义。在这篇综述文章中，我们根据取代基的位置将一百多种化合物分为几类，并分别详细描述它们对MFC和ML研究的贡献。这篇全面的综述旨在为从事设计和开发新型吩噻嗪功能材料的研究人员提供理论见解和实际示例，同时为进一步探索MFC或ML研究搭建桥梁。
