(3/4)💡Furthermore, #photoswitching of the helicates operates via a #MolecularRatchet mechanism, which autonomously operates under continuous white light irradiation. This results in the accumulation of a specific #out-of-equilibrium pseudo-mesocate structure

(4/4) Crucially, the Zn-helicate can #regioselectively exchange one Zn(II) for Fe(II), forming a Zn-Fe helicate. This process is significantly accelerated by #LightIrradiation via the #MolecularRatchet mechanism, reminiscent of the operation of a claw machine.
