Diarylethenes (DAEs) are an exciting class of stimulus-responsive organic molecules that exhibit electrocyclization reactions upon exposure to light, heat, or other stimuli. The rational design of DAE-based crystalline materials is, however, complicated by the presence of DAE atropisomers, only one of which is photoactive. Data mining of the CSD produced 1349 unique molecular DAE structures that were subsequently analyzed according to selected chemical and geometric attributes. Additional analyses were performed on 1078 dithienylethene (DTE) structures-the largest subgroup within the ensemble. The crystal structure landscape, based upon
