Programming Spatial Arrangements and Specific Dynamic Function of Metal Complexes using Artificial Ligands with Multi-Binding Sites

在这项研究中，我们借助仿生的和完全人工的、含有精确编程的金属空间排列信息的多结合位点的配体，合成了各种功能金属配合物，并探索了基于金属阵列模式的特殊性质和动力学功能。因此，使用人工DNA的异种金属阵列、具有动态功能的纳米胶囊以及分子球轴承和分子曲柄机构等分子运动装置已经被成功地构建出来。

In this study, we have synthesized a variety of functional metal complexes with the aid of bio-inspired and completely artificial ligands with multi-binding sites which include precisely programmed information on the spatial arrangements of metals, and explored specific properties and dynamic functions based on the modes of metal arrays. As the result, heterologous metal arrays using artificial DNA, nanocapsules with dynamic functions, and molecular motional devices such as molecular ball bearings and a molecular crank mechanism have been successfully constructed.
