Over the last two decades ratchet mechanisms have transformed the understanding and
design of stochastic molecular systems—biological, chemical and physical—in a move away …

Self‐healing materials are a kind of intelligent materials that have the ability to repair
themselves after damage. By using chemical reaction networks to temporarily control the …

This work reports that the composition of a dynamic library (DL) of interconverting imines can
be controlled over time in a dissipative fashion by the addition of an activated carboxylic acid …

Supramolecular gels are usually stable in time as they are formed under thermodynamic
equilibrium or at least in a deep well of a kinetically trapped state. However, artificial …

In this report it is shown that nitroacetic acid 1 (O2NCH2CO2H) can be conveniently used to
control the pH of a water solution over time. Time-programmable sequences of the kind pH1 …

Transient changes in molecular geometry are key to the function of many important
biochemical systems. Here, we show that diphenic acids undergo out-of-equilibrium …
