Abstract

The energy storage cycle of the molecular solar thermal (MOST) system has been investigated. In particular, upon irradiation, the energy-lean 2-carbethoxy-3-phenyl-norbornadiene is converted into its energy-rich quadricyclane isomer. The energy-releasing back reaction can be triggered thermally by means of a suitable catalyst surface. The differences in the energy landscapes is visualized by sea level and mountains. More information can be found in the Research Article by C. Papp and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202203739). Cover design by F. Hemauer.
