Graphical Abstract
Mit bloßem Auge lässt sich die Farbänderung erkennen, die in einer Polymermatrix auftritt, wenn das gezeigte bistabile Rotaxan zwischen den für den Grundzustand (grün) und den metastabilen Zustand (rot) stehenden Cokonformeren wechselt. Damit ist nicht nur eine elektrochrome Baueinheit in Reichweite, sondern es scheint sogar ein universeller Schaltmechanismus im Bereich des Möglichen.

- 20Previously, we had advocated (M. C. T. Fyfe, P. T. Glink, S. Menzer, J. F. Stoddart, A. J. P. White, D. J. Williams, Angew. Chem. 1997, 109, 2158–2160;
10.1002/ange.19971091908 Google ScholarAngew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1997, 36, 2068–2070) the use of the term “co-conformation” to designate the different three-dimensional spatial arrangements of the components of mechanically interlocked molecular systems. Also, in identifying the ON and OFF states of the bistable [2]catenane employed in the first MSTJ crossbar device,[16] we employed the term “co-conformer” to the two states. See, especially Figure 1 in reference [16]. In other words, in proposing our original mechanism, we appreciated correctly that the ON and OFF states are both isomeric and, of course, isoelectronic.
