Abstract in brief

  • Mechanical bonds can absorb energy effectively at low forces, but their behavior under high stress is less understood.
  • The study examines how a mechanical bond influences the activation rate of a Diels-Alder mechanophore, combining both experimental and computational methods.
  • Results show that the presence of a mechanical bond slows down the retro-Diels-Alder reaction when the mechanophore is embedded in a rotaxane, due to a high-stress area at the junction between the macrocycle and the axle.
