68. III coordination bond can be regarded as the robust rotational axis of the side rotor (also see Figure S4 in the Supporting Information).

71. To obtain direct structural information on 1, we have been trying to obtain single crystals that are suitable for X-ray analyses with and without TEA, but unfortunately we have been unsuccessful at the present stage. As far as we know, there is no report of the singlecrystal analysis of lanthanum(III) bis(porphyrinate). Instead, we utilised a computer-generated model to discuss the mechanical interaction between top and side rotors (see Figure S9 in the Supporting Information).
72. We assume that the slippage would still occur although the activation energies for the rotations of the top and side rotors are almost same.
