methods for switching the positions of macrocycles in bistable rotaxane-based molecularshuttles have been developed, exploiting such movements to trigger property changes has thus far received little attention. Here we describe one of the first examples of a property change achieved through a controlled large-amplitude translational motion in a rotaxane; a novel type of chiroptical switch is described

The synthesis of a fullerene-rotaxane is described. The thread is constituted by a C-60 unit, which acts as a stopper, functionalized with a solubilizing side chain by 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition. The rotaxane is assembled by hydrogen bond-assisted synthesis using a fumaramide template. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Light-responsive peptide [2]rotaxanes as gatekeepers of mechanised nanocontainers
Novel mechanized silica nanoparticles incorporating a peptide-basedmolecularshuttle as a photo-responsive interlocked gatekeeper of nanocontainers are described including the uptake and delivery studies of a model cargo.
