Here we report that at room temperature in acetonitrile after the reduction of the naphthalimide-site, a synthetic molecular thread undergoes a complete conformational change which makes possible an efficient conversion of chemical energy into mechan- ical work; such results point out the ability of the thread to act as a molecular device under electrochemical control.
Can a synthetic thread act as an electrochemical switchable molecular device?

Abstract
Here we report that at room temperature in acetonitrile after the reduction of the naphthalimide-site, a synthetic molecular thread undergoes a complete conformational change which makes possible an efficient conversion of chemical energy into mechan- ical work; such results point out the ability of the thread to act as a molecular device under electrochemical control.File in questo prodotto:
