A Doubly Kinetically-Gated Information Ratchet Autonomously Driven by Carbodiimide Hydration

We report a rotaxane-based information ratchet in which the macrocycle distribution is pumped away from equilibrium using a carbodiimide fuel. A carboxylate group on the axle, nonequidistant between two macrocycle binding sites, efficiently catalyzes the hydration of a carbodiimide fuel to the corre...
