Unidirectionality and efficiency of the motion is measured by explicit simulations. Two different molecular scaffolds are shown to yield viable molecular rotors when decorated with suitable substituents. 4950 https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3148223$xR$3Volltext$534 4950 https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:8-publ-535$xR$3Volltext$534 4961 https://macau.uni-kiel.de/receive/publ_mods_00000053 5051 540 5550 molecle 5550 switching
