Ovalle M, Kathan M, Toyoda R, Stindt C, Crespi S, Feringa B
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2022 Dec; 62(9):e202214495. PMID: 36453623
In a chemical equilibrium, the formation of high-energy species-in a closed system-is inefficient due to microscopic reversibility. Here, we demonstrate how this restriction can be circumvented by coupling a dynamic...

Stahler C, Grunenberg L, Terban M, Browne W, Doellerer D, Kathan M, et al.
Chem Sci . 2022 Aug; 13(28):8253-8264. PMID: 35919721
The incorporation of molecular machines into the backbone of porous framework structures will facilitate nano actuation, enhanced molecular transport, and other out-of-equilibrium host-guest phenomena in well-defined 3D solid materials. In...

Kathan M, Crespi S, Troncossi A, Stindt C, Toyoda R, Feringa B
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2022 Jun; 61(34):e202205801. PMID: 35718745
In artificial small-molecule machines, molecular motors can be used to perform work on coupled systems by applying a mechanical load-such as strain-that allows for energy transduction. Here, we report how...

Kathan M, Crespi S, Thiel N, Stares D, Morsa D, de Boer J, et al.
Nat Nanotechnol . 2021 Dec; 17(2):159-165. PMID: 34916655
Biological molecular machines enable chemical transformations, assembly, replication and motility, but most distinctively drive chemical systems out of-equilibrium to sustain life. In such processes, nanometre-sized machines produce molecular energy carriers...

Jurissek C, Berger F, Eisenreich F, Kathan M, Hecht S
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2018 Dec; 58(7):1945-1949. PMID: 30513134
The transfer of stereoinformation is at the heart of asymmetric reactions. By incorporating the natural monoterpene l-menthone into the backbone of a diarylethene, we achieved efficient chirality transfer upon photocyclization,...

Kathan M, Eisenreich F, Jurissek C, Dallmann A, Gurke J, Hecht S
Nat Chem . 2018 Aug; 10(10):1031-1036. PMID: 30104723
Bond formation between two molecular entities in a closed system strictly obeys the principle of microscopic reversibility and occurs in favour of the thermodynamically more stable product. Here, we demonstrate...

Kathan M, Hecht S
Chem Soc Rev . 2017 Sep; 46(18):5536-5550. PMID: 28857096
In order to perform chemical work, molecular systems have to be operated away from thermodynamic equilibrium and therefore require the input of energy. Light is perhaps the most abundant and...

Kathan M, Kovaricek P, Jurissek C, Senf A, Dallmann A, Thunemann A, et al.
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl . 2016 Jul; 55(44):13882-13886. PMID: 27391109
Various aldehyde-containing photoswitches have been developed whose reactivity toward amines can be controlled externally. A thermally stable bifunctional diarylethene, which in its ring-closed form exhibits imine formation accelerated by one...

Schweinfurth D, Zalibera M, Kathan M, Shen C, Mazzolini M, Trapp N, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2014 Aug; 136(37):13045-52. PMID: 25154039
We present the synthesis and characterization of enantiomerically pure [6]helicene o-quinones (P)-(+)-1 and (M)-(-)-1 and their application to chiroptical switching and chiral recognition. (P)-(+)-1 and (M)-(-)-1 each show a reversible...
