Abstract
2H solid-state NMR and atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are used to understand the disorder of guest solvent molecules in two cocrystal solvates of the pharmaceutical furosemide. Traditional approaches to interpreting the NMR data fail to provide a coherent model of molecular behavior and indeed give misleading kinetic data. In contrast, the direct prediction of the NMR properties from MD simulation trajectories allows the NMR data to be correctly interpreted in terms of combined jump-type and libration-type motions. Time-independent component analysis of the MD trajectories provides additional insights, particularly for motions that are invisible to NMR. This allows a coherent picture of the dynamics of molecules restricted in molecular-sized cavities to be determined.

J Am Chem Soc 2024; 146:8131-8141.

Abstract
The ability of molecules to move and rearrange in the solid state accounts for the polymorphic transition and stimuli-responsive properties of molecular crystals. However, how the crystal structure determines the molecular motion ability remains poorly understood. Here, we report that a three-dimensional (3D) supramolecular gear network in the green-emissive polymorph 1G of a dialkylamino-substituted anthracene-pentiptycene π-system (1) enables an unusual bifurcated polymorphic transition into a yellow-emissive polymorph (1Y) and a new green-emissive polymorph (1G*) via 3D correlated supramolecular rotation. The 90° forward correlated rotation causes the molecular conformation between the octyl and the anthracene units to change from syn to anti, the ladder-like supramolecular columns to constrict, and the gear network to disengage. This cooperative molecular motion is marked by the gradual formation of an intermediate state (1I) across the entire crystal from 170 to 230 °C, which then undergoes bifurcated (forward or backward rotation) and irreversible transitions to form polymorphs 1Y and 1G* at 230-235 °C. Notably, 1G* is similar to 1G but lacks gear engagement, preventing its transformation into 1Y. Nevertheless, 1G can be restored by grinding 1Y or 1G* or fuming with dichloromethane (DCM) vapor. This work illustrates the correlation between the crystal structure and solid-state molecular motion behavior and demonstrates how a 3D molecular gear system efficiently transmits thermal energy to drive the polymorphic transition and induce fluorochromism through significant conformational and packing changes.

Abstract
A new type of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogen containing a dimeric metal fragment and two or three phthalazine ligands is described, which shows dynamic motions of ligands around the metal centers in solution. Based on the variable-temperature and EXSY NMR spectroscopy data, X-ray crystallography structures, and computational results, three different pathways (i.e., reversible exchange with haptotropic shifts, circulation of ligands around the dimeric metal fragment, and walking on the spot of ligands on the metal centers) were considered for this dynamic behavior. Restriction of these dynamic processes in the aggregate forms of the compounds (in H2O/CH3CN solvent mixtures) contributes to their AIE. DFT calculations and NMR analysis showed that bright excited states for these molecules are not localized on isolated molecules, and the emission of them stemmed from π-dimers or π-oligomers. The morphologies and the mode of associations in the solvent mixtures were determined by using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and concentration-dependent NMR spectroscopy. The computational results showed the presence of a conical intersection (CI) between the S0 and S1 excited state, which provides an accessible pathway for nonradiative decay in these systems.

Abstract
We report that a newly developed type of triaryltriazine rotor, which bears bulky silyl moieties on the para position of its peripheral phenylene groups, forms a columnar stacked clutch structure in the crystalline phase. The phenylene units of the crystalline rotors display two different and interconvertible correlated molecular motions. It is possible to switch between these intermolecular geared rotational motions via a thermally induced crystal-to-crystal phase transition. Variable-temperature solid-state 2H NMR measurements and X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the crystalline rotor is characterized by a vertically stacked columnar structure upon introducing a bulky Si moiety with bent geometry as the stator. The structure exhibits correlated flapping motions via a combination of 85° and ca. 95° rotations between 295 and 348 K, concurrent with a negative entropy change (ΔS‡ = -23 ± 0.3 cal mol-1 K-1). Interestingly, heating the crystal beyond 348 K induces an anisotropic expansion of the column and lowers the steric congestion between the adjacent rotators, thus altering the correlated motions from a flapping motion to a correlated 2-fold 180° rotation with a lower entropic penalty (ΔS‡ = -14 ± 0.5 cal mol-1 K-1). The obtained results of our study suggest that the intermolecular stacking of the C3-symmetric rotator driven by the steric repulsion of the bulky stator represents a promising strategy for producing various correlated molecular motions in the crystalline phase. Moreover, direct and reversible modulation of the intermolecularly correlated rotation is achieved via a thermally induced crystal-to-crystal phase transition, which operates as a gearshift function at the molecular level.

Abstract
![]()
The organic components
in metal–organic frameworks (MOFs)
are unique: they are embedded in a crystalline lattice, yet, as they
are separated from each other by tunable free space, a large variety
of dynamic behavior can emerge. These rotational dynamics of the organic
linkers are especially important due to their influence over properties
such as gas adsorption and kinetics of guest release. To fully exploit
linker rotation, such as in the form of molecular machines, it is
necessary to engineer correlated linker dynamics to achieve their
cooperative functional motion. Here, we show that for MIL-53, a topology
with closely spaced rotors, the phenylene functionalization allows
researchers to tune the rotors’ steric environment, shifting
linker rotation from completely static to rapid motions at frequencies
above 100 MHz. For steric interactions that start to inhibit independent
rotor motion, we identify for the first time the emergence of coupled
rotation modes in linker dynamics. These findings pave the way for
function-specific engineering of gear-like cooperative motion in MOFs.

Abstract
Sixfold phenyl embraces are well-established aromatic interactions that are strong and directional. In addition, functional groups that are able to participate, such as triphenylmethyl (trityl), are easily incorporated in molecular structures. As a result, embraces offer a possible way to control molecular organization in materials. To test this notion, we used a hybrid organic-inorganic strategy to make compounds with multiple trityl groups. Trityl-substituted alkynylpyridines 3-5 react with Pd(II) to form square-planar 4:1 complexes with multiple divergent trityl groups poised to engage in embraces. The complexes were crystallized, and their structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. Surprisingly, few structures in this set of compounds were found to incorporate sixfold embraces. Our observations suggest that predictable molecular organization cannot normally be achieved using these embraces, which must compete with alternative aromatic interactions of similar energy.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that "crystal fluidity" in the form of fast conformational motions is critical for large-amplitude rotational motion in crystals. To explore this concept, we designed a crystalline assembly featuring two diethynylbenzene (DEB) molecular rotators linked to tetraphenylethylene (TPE), a fluorophore known to emit with intensities that depend on the rigidity of the medium. We envisioned that an increase in crystal fluidity as a function of increasing temperature would facilitate rotational motion of the DEB while diminishing the fluorescence intensity of the TPE. The aggregation-induced emission of the TPE moiety was confirmed when its fluorescence intensity increased by the addition of water to a THF solution. While bulk solids showed a relatively strong TPE emission with a lifetime of 4 ± 1 ns, no significant changes were observed between measurements carried out from 77 to 298 K, indicating that the crystal environment has limited motion within the excited-state lifetime. This conclusion was confirmed by the quadrupolar echo 2H NMR line-shape analysis of a deuterium-labeled sample between 198 and 298 K, which revealed rotational correlation times in the microsecond regime, suggesting that rotational fluidity is 3 orders of magnitude too slow to affect fluorescence emission.

Abstract
Artificial molecular machines are expected to operate under conditions of very low Reynolds numbers with inertial forces orders of magnitude smaller than viscous forces. While these conditions are relatively well understood in bulk fluids, opportunities to assess the role of viscous forces in confined crystalline media are rare. Here we report one such example of diffusion-controlled rotation in crystals and its application as a probe for viscosity of MOF-confined solvent. We describe the preparation and characterization of three pillared paddlewheel MOFs, with 9,10-bis(4-pyridylethynyl)triptycene 3 as a pillar and molecular rotator, and three axially substituted dicarboxylate linkers with different lengths and steric bulk. The noncatenated structure with a bulky dicarboxylate linker (UCLA-R3) features a cavity filled by 10 molecules of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Solid-state 2H NMR analysis performed between 293 and 343 K revealed a fast 3-fold rotation of the pillar triptycene group with the temperature dependence consistent with a site exchange process determined by rotator-solvent interactions. The dynamic viscosity of the MOF-confined solvent was estimated to be 13.3 N·s/m2 (or Pa·s), which is 4 orders of magnitude greater than that of bulk DMF (8.2 × 10-4 N·s/m2), and comparable to that of honey.

Abstract
Low packing densities are key structural features of amphidynamic crystals built with static and mobile components. Here we report a loosely packed crystal of dendrimeric rotor 2 and the fast dynamics of all its aromatic groups, both resulting from the hyperbranched structure of the molecule. Compound 2 was synthesized with a convergent strategy to construct a central phenylene core with stators consisting of two layers of triarylmethyl groups. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed a low-density packing structure consisting of one molecule of 2 and approximately eight solvent molecules per unit cell. Three isotopologues of 2 were synthesized to study the motion of each segment of the molecule in the solid state using variable temperature quadrupolar echo (2)H NMR spectroscopy. Line shape analysis of the spectra reveals that the central phenylene, the six branch phenylenes, and the 18 periphery phenyls all display megahertz rotational dynamics in the crystals at ambient temperature. Arrhenius analysis of the data gives similar activation energies and pre-exponential factors for different parts of the structure. The observed pre-exponential factors are 4-6 orders of magnitude greater than those of elementary site-exchange processes, indicating that the dynamics are not dictated by static energetic potentials. Instead, the activation energies for rotations in the crystals of 2 are controlled by temperature dependent local structural fluctuations and crystal fluidity.

Abstract
Rational design to control the dynamics of molecular rotors in crystalline solids is of interest because it offers advanced materials with precisely tuned functionality. Herein, we describe the control of the rotational frequency of rotors in flexible porous coordination polymers (PCPs) using a solid-solution approach. Solid-solutions of the flexible PCPs [{Zn(5-nitroisophthalate)x(5-methoxyisophthalate)1-x(deuterated 4,4'-bipyridyl)}(DMF·MeOH)]n allow continuous modulation of cell volume by changing the solid-solution ratio x. Variation of the isostructures provides continuous changes in the local environment around the molecular rotors (pyridyl rings of the 4,4'-bipyridyl group), leading to the control of the rotational frequency without the need to vary the temperature.

Abstract
The well-tempered, smoothly converging form of the metadynamics algorithm has been implemented in classical molecular dynamics simulations and used to obtain an estimate of the free energy surface explored by the molecular rotations in the plastic crystal, octafluoronaphthalene. The biased simulations explore the full energy surface extremely efficiently, more than 4 orders of magnitude faster than unbiased molecular dynamics runs. The metadynamics collective variables used have also been expanded to include the simultaneous orientations of three neighboring octafluoronaphthalene molecules. Analysis of the resultant three-dimensional free energy surface, which is sampled to a very high degree despite its significant complexity, demonstrates that there are strong correlations between the molecular orientations. Although this correlated motion is of limited applicability in terms of exploiting dynamical motion in octafluoronaphthalene, the approach used is extremely well suited to the investigation of the function of crystalline molecular machines.

Abstract
The motional behavior of p-phenylene-d(4) rotators confined within the 2D layers of a hierarchically ordered periodic mesoporous p-divinylbenzenesilica has been elucidated to evaluate the effects of reduced dimensionality on the engineered dynamics of artificial molecular machines. The hybrid mesoporous material, characterized by a honeycomb lattice structure, has arrays of alternating p-divinylbenzene rotors and siloxane layers forming the molecularly ordered walls of the mesoscopic channels. The p-divinylbenzene rotors are strongly anchored between two adjacent siloxane sheets, so that the p-phenylene rotators are unable to experience translational diffusion and are allowed to rotate about only one fixed axis. Variable-temperature (2)H NMR experiments revealed that the p-phenylene rotators undergo an exchange process between sites related by 180° and a non-Arrhenius temperature dependence of the dynamics, with reorientational rates ranging from 10(3) to 10(8) Hz between 215 to 305 K. The regime of motion changes rapidly at about 280 K indicating the occurrence of a dynamical transition. The transition was also recognized by a steep change in the heat capacity at constant pressure. As a result of the robust lamellar architecture comprising the pore walls, the orientational dynamic disorder related to the phase transition is only realized in two dimensions within the layers, that is in the plane perpendicular to the channel axis. Thus, the aligned rotors that form the organic layers exhibit unique anisotropic dynamical properties as a result of the architecture's reduced dimensionality. The dynamical disorder restricted to two dimensions constitutes a highly mobile fluidlike rotational phase at room temperature, which upon cooling undergoes a transition to a more rigid glasslike phase. Activation energies of 5.9 and 9.5 kcal/mol respectively have been measured for the two dynamical regimes of rotation. Collectively, our investigation has led to the discovery of an orientationally disordered 2D rotational glass and its transition from rigid to soft at increasing temperature. The spectral narrowing observed in the (2)H NMR experiments at higher temperatures (310-420 K) is consistent with fast rotational dynamics, which remain anisotropic in nature within the robust lamellar architecture. This study suggests that exploiting reduced dimensionality in the design of solid-state artificial molecular machines and functional materials may yield access to behavior previously unrealized in 3D materials.

Abstract
The design of molecular machines is stimulated by the possibility of developing new materials with complex physicochemical and mechanical properties that are responsive to external stimuli. Condensed-phase matter with anisotropic molecular order and controlled dynamics, also defined as amphidynamic crystals, offers a promising platform for the design of bulk materials capable of performing such functions. Recent studies have shown that it is possible to engineer molecular crystals and extended solids with Brownian rotation about specific axes that can be interfaced with external fields, which may ultimately be used to design novel optoelectronic materials. Structure/function relationships of amphidynamic materials have been characterized, establishing the blueprints to further engineer sophisticated function. However, the synthesis of amphidynamic molecular machines composed of multiple "parts" is essential to realize increasingly complex behavior. Recent progress in amphidynamic multicomponent systems suggests that sophisticated functions similar to those of simple biomolecular machines may eventually be within reach.

Abstract
Sterical (van der Waals-induced) rotational barriers of methyl groups are investigated theoretically, using ab initio and empirical force field calculations, for various three-dimensional microenvironmental conditions around the methyl group rotator of a model neopentane molecule. The destabilization (reducing methyl rotational barriers) or stabilization (increasing methyl rotational barriers) of the staggered conformation of the methyl rotator depends on a combination of microenvironmental contributions from (i) the number of atoms around the rotator, (ii) the distance between the rotator and the microenvironmental atoms, and (iii) the dihedral angle between the stator, rotator, and molecular environment around the rotator. These geometrical criteria combine their respective effects in a linearly additive fashion, with no apparent cooperative effects, and their combination in space around a rotator may increase, decrease, or leave the rotator's rotational barrier unmodified. This is exemplified in a geometrical analysis of the alanine dipeptide crystal where microenvironmental effects on methyl rotators' barrier of rotation fit the geometrical mapping described in the neopentane model.

Abstract
A gyroscope-inspired tribenzylamine hemicryptophane provides a vehicle for exploring the structure and properties of multiple p-phenylene rotators within one molecule. The hemicryptophane was synthesized in three steps in good overall yield using mild conditions. Three rotator-forming linkers were cyclized to form a rigid cyclotriveratrylene (CTV) stator framework, which was then closed with an amine. The gyroscope-like molecule was characterized by (1)H NMR and (13)C NMR spectroscopy, and the structure was solved by X-ray crystallography. The rigidity of the two-component CTV-trismethylamine stator was investigated by (1)H variable-temperature (VT) NMR experiments and molecular dynamics simulations. These techniques identified gyration of the three p-phenylene rotators on the millisecond time scale at -93 °C, with more dynamic but still hindered motion at room temperature (27 °C). The activation energy for the p-phenylene rotation was determined to be ~10 kcal mol(-1). Due to the propeller arrangement of the p-phenylenes, their rotation is hindered but not strongly correlated. The compact size, simple synthetic route, and molecular motions of this gyroscope-inspired tribenzylamine hemicryptophane make it an attractive starting point for controlling the direction and coupling of rotators within molecular systems.

Abstract
We describe a heteromolecular single crystal that exhibits three reversible and concerted reorganizations upon heating and cooling. The products of the reorganizations are conformational polymorphs. The reorganizations are postulated to proceed through three motions: (i) alkyl translations, (ii) olefin rotations, and (iii) rotational tilts. The motions are akin to rack-and-pinion gears at the molecular level. The rack-like movement is based on expansions and compressions of alkyl chains that are coupled with pinion-like 180 degree rotations of olefins. To accommodate the movements, phenol and thiophene components undergo rotational tilts about intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The movements are collective, being propagated in close-packed repeating units. This discovery marks a step to understanding how organic solids can support the development of crystalline molecular machines and devices through correlated and collective movements.
