Front Cover: Molecular Switches and Motors Powered by Orthogonal Stimuli (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 47/2020)
Year: 2020
Type: paratext
Abstract: The Front Cover shows a conceptual illustration of molecular systems that can be activated by orthogonal stimuli to show multimodal movement. Integration of distinct mechanically active components would be a promising strategy to design molecular machines capable of executing sophisticated tasks. However, a key consideration is how to ensure selective operation of the individual components. In this regard, a variety of ingenious examples of molecular switches and motors powered by different stimuli to exhibit multiple dynamic features have been reported. More information can be found in the Minireview by S. Kwon et al.
