Mechano‐induced single‐crystal‐to‐single‐crystal (SCSC) phase transitions are intriguing, but have rarely been reported. In this Full Paper, two gold isocyanide complexes, which exhibit this type of phase transition with complementary structure changes, are comprehensively investigated. Face‐index experiments, differential calorimetric analyses, and flash‐photolysis time‐resolved microwave conductivity measurements of these complexes before and after the mechano‐induced SCSC phase transitions provide hitherto unknown insights on stimulus‐responsive solid materials. More information can be found in the Full Paper by H. Ito et al. on page 1968 ff.
