The lubricating role of water in the shuttling of rotaxanes

We have investigated at the atomic level amide-based rotaxanes set in motion in four different solvents, namely, ethyl ether, acetonitrile, ethanol and water. In three non-aqueous solvents, shuttling of the macrocycle between two binding sites separated by a free-energy barrier is coupled with a con...
