摘要
(Chemical Equation Presented) Chaperones for wild molecules: A molecule's conformational flexibility can be eliminated by enclosing it with a macrocyclic mold as a [2]rotaxane (see picture) that forces it into a specific shape. After rapid cooling, the mold is removed with a laser pulse. Through this process, the molded molecule becomes a suitable candidate for high-resolution electronic excitation spectroscopy. © 2008 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
