Hydrogen‐bonded liquid crystals with switchable fluorescence . Giese and co‐workers have investigated the liquid crystallinity and fluorescence behavior of hydrogen‐bonded assemblies. The unique combination of hydrogen‐bonding, liquid crystallinity and photobasicity of this system enables reversible switching of the fluorescence. The application potential of the materials for photo‐patterning was demonstrated. Read more in their Communication on page 13347 ff.
