Abstract With the aim of mimicking biological machines, in which delicate arrangement nanomechanical units lead to output specific functions upon external stimulus, construction dual stimuli-responsive rotaxane-branched dendrimers was realized this study. Starting from a switchable organometallic [2]rotaxane precursor, employment controllable divergent approach allowed for successful synthesis family up third generation with 21 rotaxane moieties located on each branch. More importantly,...

Coronavirus 3C-like protease (3CLPro) is a highly conserved cysteine employing catalytic dyad for its functions. 3CLPro essential to the viral life cycle and, therefore, an attractive target developing antiviral agents. However, detailed mechanism of coronavirus remains largely unknown. We took integrated approach X-ray crystallography, mutational studies, enzyme kinetics study, and inhibitors gain insights into mechanism. Such experimental work supplemented by computational including...

Starting from a novel rotaxane building block with dendrimer growth sites being located at both the wheel and axle component, we realized successful construction of new family rotaxane-branched dendrimers, i.e., Type III-C up to fourth generation as highly branched [46]rotaxane through controllable divergent approach. In resultant components units are on branches well branching points, making them excellent candidates mimic amplified collective molecular motions. Thus, taking advantage urea...

By simple ligand exchange of the cationic transition-metal complexes [(Cp*)M(acetone)3 ](OTf)2 (Cp*=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl and M=Ir or Rh) with pillar[5]arene, mono- polynuclear pillar[5]arenes, a new class metalated host molecules, is prepared. Single-crystal X-ray analysis shows that charged cations are directly bound to outer π-surface aromatic rings pillar[5]arene. One triflate anions deeply embedded within cavity trinuclear which different host-guest behavior most pillar[5]arenes....

As a common phenomenon in biological systems, supramolecular transformations of biomacromolecules lead to specific functions as outputs, which thus inspire people construct biomimetic dynamic systems through transformation strategy. It should be noted that well-modulating the artificial macromolecules fine-tune their properties is great significance yet still remains big challenge polymer chemistry. In this study, combination coordination-driven self-assembly and postassembly ring-opening...

Slip sliding away: Foldamers (see picture, red) can function as modular stoppers to regulate the slippage and de-slippage of pseudorotaxanes switching kinetics metastability bistable rotaxanes. By simply changing solvent or length hydrogen-bonded foldamer, lifetime metastable co-conformation state be increased dramatically, from several minutes long days.
