Single-molecule level control of host-guest interactions in metallocycle-C60 complexes
Studying the single-molecule behavior of host-guest complexes can provide fundamental insights into their supramolecular interactions.

Sumario: | Studying the single-molecule behavior of host-guest complexes can provide fundamental insights into their supramolecular interactions. Here, the authors use the scanning tunneling microscopy break junction technique to show that encapsulation of a C60 molecule significantly enhances the conductance of an organoplatinum metallocycle; mechanical stretching of the junction releases the guest, returning the conductance to free-host level. |
