Catalytic Reversible (De) hydrogenation To Rotate a Chemically Fueled Molecular Switch

Abstract: We report here the development of a rotating molecular switch based on metal‐catalyzed reversible (de)‐hydrogenation. Under an argon atmosphere, acceptorless dehydrogenation induces a switch from an alcohol to a ketone, while reversing to a hydrogen pressure switches back the system to the alcohol. Based on a tolane scaffold, such reversible (de)‐hydrogenation enables 180° rotation. The absence of waste accumulation in a switch relying on chemical stimuli is of great significance and could potentially be applied to the design of efficient complex molecular machines.
