Synchronizing Two Distinct Nano‐Circular Sliding Motions in Six‐Component Machinery for Double Catalysis

The heteroleptic multi‐component double slider‐on‐deck system DS3 exhibits tight coupling of motional speed of two distinct nano‐circular sliders (k (298)=77 and 41 kHz) despite a 2.2 nm separation. In comparison, the single sliders in DS1 and DS2 move at vastly different speed (k (298)=1.1 vs. 350 kHz). Synchronization of the motions in DS3 remains even when one slows the movement of the faster slider using small molecular brake pads. In contrast to the individual DS1 and DS2 systems, DS3 is a powerful catalyst for a two‐step reaction by using the motion of both sliders to drive two catalytic processes.
