Remote Photoregulated Ring Gliding in a [2]Rotaxane via a Molecular Effector
A molecular barbiturate messenger,
which is reversibly released/captured
by a photoswitchable artificial molecular receptor, is shown to act
as an effector to control ring gliding on a distant hydrogen-bonding
[2]Ârotaxane. Thus, light-driven chemical communication governing the
operation of a remote molecular machine is demonstrated using an information-rich
neutral molecule
