Is that a flower?
It is a motor

Can one design molecules that would
prefer to roll on a surface?
Seems rather difficult, perhaps we can try to
use fluxionality!
What do you mean?

To explain, let us start with Pentaprismane
Consider Hypostrophene-it is fluxional -perhaps we
can use this property!

We conclude that:
Hypostrophene and tricyclooctadiene when chemisorbed on Al(100) surface should behave as ‘Molecular roller’

We conclude that :
Bidisa Das, K.L Sebastian, Chemical Physics Letters, 357, 25 (2002).
The cyclopentadienyl co-adsorbed with hydrogen on Si/Ge/Sn (111) surfaces would form a system where the five membered ring can undergo spinning motion with low activation energies.

Brownian motion would drive the ratchet! But it can rotate only in
one direction! So thermal, random motion can be used to
drive the ratchet in one direction!

But wait! Let us think about this!
There he goes! As mad as a
coot!
The fact that you can see rotation means
that your initial state is a non-equilibrium
one!So even if you had seen net rotation, that would not violate the second
law!

But you do not see any net rotation! What does
that mean?
Because of Detailed Balance!

CONCLUSIONS
Molecular Roller, Wheel, Rocker, Rattle!
Fluxional behavior can be used to get
interesting mechanical motion
Ratchets, Light driven motor……
