Fuel-Controlled Reassembly of Metal–Organic Architectures

-based self-assembled metallosupramolecular architectures for defined periods of time. This method was used to exert control over the threading and dethreading of the ring of a pseudorotaxane's axle, as well as to direct the uptake and release of a guest from a metal-organic host. Management of the amount of fuel and catalyst added allowed for time-dependent regulation of product concentration.
