The shuttling mechanism of foldaxanes: more than just translocation and rotation

Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2020, Advance Article DOI: 10.1039/D0CP01952F, PaperPeng Liu, Wenqi Hao, Xihui Bian, Donghai Mei Understanding movements within molecular machines is the prerequisite of tailoring its structure to achieve specific functions. With the aid of molecular dynamics simulations and enhanced sampling methods, movements within the foldaxane have been revealed. Movements,viz., translocation, rotation, tilt, shrinkage, and swelling, have been identified and investigated in detail.
