The dynamics of hydrogen bonding do not only play an important role in many biochemical processes but also in Nature's multicomponent machines. Here, a three-component nanorotor is presented where both the self-assembly and rotational dynamics are guided by hydrogen bonding. In the rate-limiting step of the rotational exchange, two phenolic O-H-N,N<sub>(phenanthroline)</sub> hydrogen bonds are cleaved, a process that was followed by variable-temperature <sup>1</sup> H NMR spectroscopy.
