Synthesis of a soluble fullerene-rotaxane incorporating a furamide template
Mateo-Alonso, Aurelio,Prato, Maurizio
, p. 2003 - 2007 (2006)
The synthesis of a fullerene-rotaxane is described. The thread is constituted by a C60 unit, which acts as a stopper, functionalized with a solubilizing side chain by 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition. The rotaxane is assembled by hydrogen bond-assiste
Remarkable positional discrimination in bistable light- and heat-switchable hydrogen-bonded molecular shuttles
Altieri, Andrea,Bottari, Giovanni,Dehez, Francois,Leigh, David A.,Wong, Jenny K. Y.,Zerbetto, Francesco
, p. 2296 - 2300 (2007/10/03)
A tale of two stations: Molecular shuttles, in which a macrocyclic unit can move between two stations over a relatively large distance (1.5 nm), exhibit bistability that can be induced using either light or heat as stimuli, and exhibit large required vari
