چکیده
A Cu(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition was used to construct a monolayer of an altitudinal molecular motor on quartz and silicon substrates, which represents the fastest light-driven molecular motor, to date, grafted to a solid surface.

Towards dynamic control of wettability by using functionalized altitudinal molecular motors on solid surfaces.
We report the synthesis of altitudinal molecular motors that contain functional groups in their rotor part. In an approach to achieve dynamic control over the properties of solid surfaces, a hydrophobic perfluorobutyl chain and a relatively hydrophilic cyano group were introduced to the rotor part of the motors. Molecular motors were attached to quartz surfaces by using interfacial 1,3-dipolar ...
متن کاملThird-Generation Light-Driven Symmetric Molecular Motors
Symmetric molecular motors based on two overcrowded alkenes with a notable absence of a stereogenic center show potential to function as novel mechanical systems in the development of more advanced nanomachines offering controlled motion over surfaces. Elucidation of the key parameters and limitations of these third-generation motors is essential for the design of optimized molecular machines b...
متن کاملUllmann coupling mediated assembly of an electrically driven altitudinal molecular rotor.
Surface-bound molecular rotation can occur with the rotational axis either perpendicular (azimuthal) or parallel (altitudinal) to the surface. The majority of molecular rotor studies involve azimuthal rotors, whereas very few altitudinal rotors have been reported. In this work, altitudinal rotors are formed by means of coupling aryl halides through a surface-mediated Ullmann coupling reaction, ...
متن کاملAsymmetric Synthesis of Second-Generation Light-Driven Molecular Motors
The enantiomeric homogeneity of light-driven molecular motors based on overcrowded alkenes is crucial in their application as either unidirectional rotors or as chiral multistate switches. It was challenging to obtain these compounds as single enantiomers via the established synthetic procedures due to loss of optical purity in the key step, i.e., the Barton-Kellogg olefination reaction.

متن کاملA redesign of light-driven rotary molecular motors.
Structural modification of unidirectional light-driven rotary molecular motors in which the naphthalene moieties are exchanged for substituted phenyl moieties are reported. This redesign provides an additional tool to control the speed of the motors, and should enable the design and synthesis of more complex systems.
