title: Colour coding the co-conformations of a [2]rotaxane flip-switch.
abstract: Fine-tuning the charge transfer chromophores in a series of [2]rotaxane flip-switches yields a unique optical signal (purple colour) for one of the interactions allowing for facile determination of the position of the flip-switch equilibrium.
