Single crystals which exhibit mechanical flexibility are promising materials for advanced technological applications. Before such materials can be used, a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of bending is needed. Using single crystal X-ray diffraction and microfocus Raman spectroscopy, we study in atomic detail the high-pressure response of the plastically flexible coordination polymer [Zn(μ-Cl)<sub>2</sub>(3,5-dichloropyridine)<sub>2</sub>]<sub>n</sub> (1). Contradictory to three-point ben ...[more]
