  text: Multifaceted material responses upon exposure to stimuli are key for developing
    life-like materials. Developing such synthetic systems, though not trivial, typically
    relies on orthogonal stimuli to enable control of molecular systems that enable
    multi-responsive behavior. Access to complex tunable reaction mechanisms with
    diverse energy landscapes offers an alternative strategy for controlling out-of-equilibrium
    processes without requiring orthogonal stimuli for each responsive unit. Donor-acceptor
    Stenhouse adducts (DASAs) are a class of photoswitches that have complex, tunable,
    and environmentally sensitive reaction pathways. We present the control of donor-acceptor
    Stenhouse adduct equilibrium and photoswitching kinetics through changes in the
    polarity of their environment. Polarity and light can be used to selectively control
    the pathway outcomes of three DASA derivatives where the orthogonal response comes
    from changes in the energy landscape and is not driven by their orthogonal response
    to the given stimuli. This work paves the way to designing multi-responsive and
    self-regulating life-like materials.
