- heteroleptic aggregates are quite different. While in the former often a step-by-step attachment of the different ligands to the metal centers under kinetic control is dominating, the formation of dynamic aggregates relies on effective self-sorting protocols under thermodynamic control [24]. In its initial
- catalytic machinery was due to kinetic and not thermodynamic reasons (Figure 19). While the concept of increased liberation of an organocatalyst (ILC) has been demonstrated in other dynamic nanomechanical systems as well [99], a particular highlight was recently realized with a catalytic nanorotor that was

Ring closing with the ortho-carbon of the aryl ring generates aryl radical 128 which was confirmed not to be the rate-determining step by kinetic isotope effect studies.
