(A) Molecular drawing of the bistable [2]catenane used in this work. The voltage-driven circumrotation of co-conformer [A0] to co-conformer [B+] is the basis of the device.
(B) Proposed mechanism for the operation of the device. Co-conformer [A0] represents both the ground-state structure of the [2]catenane and the “switch open” state of the device. When the [2]catenane is oxidized, the TTF groups (green) are ionized. The coconformer [B+] is formed. When the voltage is reduced to a near-zero bias, the co-conformer [B0] is formed, and this represents the “switch closed” state of the device. Partial reduction of the cyclophane (+2 V) is necessary to regenerate the [A0] co-conformer. The reduced co-conformer [AB#] is indicated with an unknown oxidation state.
