Continuous directionally biased 360° rotation about a covalent single bond was recently realized in the form of chemically fueled 1-phenylpyrrole 2,2′-dicarboxylic acid rotary molecular motor. However, original fueling system and reaction conditions resulted motor directionality only ∼3:1 (i.e., on average backward for every three forward rotations), along with catalytic efficiency operation 97% fuel 14%. Here, we report efficacy series chiral carbodiimide fuels hydrolysis promoters (pyridine pyridine N-oxide derivatives) driving improved directional this motor-molecule. We outline complete network operation, composed directional, futile, slip cycles. Using derivatives where final conformational step is either very slow or completely blocked, phenylpyrrole diacid becomes enantiomerically enriched, allowing kinetic gating individual steps cycle to be measured. The that produces highest gives 13% enantiomeric excess (e.e.) anhydride-forming kinetically gated step, while most effective promoter generates 90% e.e. step. Combining best-performing into results 92% e.e.. Under dilute chemostated regime (to avoid N-acyl urea formation at high concentrations promoters), continuously rotates ∼24:1 24 rotations) >99% 51%.
