A metal organic framework (MOF) engineered to contain in its scaffold rod-like struts featuring ultrafast molecular rotors showed extremely rapid 180 ° flip reorientation with rotational rates of 1011 Hz at 150 K. Crystal-pore accessibility of the MOF allowed the CO2 molecules to enter the cavities and control the rotor spinning speed down to 105 Hz at 150 K. Rotor dynamics, as modulated by CO2 loading/unloading in the porous crystals, was described by proton T1 and 2H NMR spectroscopy. This strategy enabled the regulation of rotary motion by the diffusion of the gas within the channels and the determination of the energetics of rotary dynamics in the presence of CO2
