We report the synthesis of unidirectional light-drivenrotarymolecularmotors based on chiral overcrowded alkenes and their immobilisation on the surface of gold nanoparticles through two anchors. Using a combination of (1)H and (13)C NMR, UV/Vis and CD spectroscopy, we show that these motors preserve their photochemical and thermal behaviour after they have been attached to gold nanoparticles.

We report the design, synthesis and study of nanotube-forming light-responsive amphiphiles, in which chirality can be used as a means to control the morphologies of self-assembled structures.
