  • Beschreibung: Molecular shuttles describe rotaxanes in which a key feature of the tertiary structure, the relative positions of the interlocked components, can be changed in response to an external input such as a solvent. The cover picture shows such an assembly as well as fluorescent patterns generated by stimuli‐induced submolecular motion of the assembly in polymer films. For more details see the Communication by D. A. Leigh et al. on page 3062 ff. (The image of the space‐shuttle launch was captured from the game SimCity 4: Rush Hour.)
