SUMMARY:Dynamic Stereochemistry: Controlling and Exploiting Molecular Dire
 ctionality - Prof. Jonathan Clayden\, University of Bristol 
DTSTART:20241120T140000Z
DTEND:20241120T150000Z
UID:TALK219655@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Jasmine Mitchell
DESCRIPTION:The lecture will describe designed families of molecules that 
 undergo well-defined dynamic conformational changes - helix inversions\, d
 irectionality reversals\, and single bond rotations. Coherent control of t
 hese types of molecular motion can be used to create biomimetic function\,
  such as the translation of molecular messages into chemical reactivity an
 d the catalytic induction of out-of-equilibrium behaviour. In the context 
 of this last topic\, the lecture will reveal a startlingly simple prototyp
 e for a redox-driven autonomous molecular motor.
