Abstract
Stepwise dissipative control of two distinct motions, i.e., shuttling and sliding, is demonstrated in a single multicomponent device. When [2]rotaxane 1 , which acts as a biped, and deck 2 were treated with AgBF 4 /PhCH 2 Br+NEt 3 as chemical fuel, the transient catenate [Ag( 1 )] + ⋅ [Ag 3 ( 2 )] 3+ was instantly generated showing multimodal motion and autonomous return to 1 and 2 . In the dissipative process, catenate [Ag( 1 )] + ⋅ [Ag 3 ( 2 )] 3+ cleanly transformed into the follow‐up transient device ( 1 ) ⋅ [Ag 3 ( 2 )] 3+ exhibiting only sliding motion. Two interference‐free dissipative cycles proved the resilience and robustness of the process.
