Molecular rotors arranged in ordered two- and three-dimensional lattices are an emergent quantum mechanical system. We use dipolar molecular rotors as building blocks to synthesize surface-anchored metal-organic framework (MOF), which serves as a structural architecture to arrange the molecular rotors precisely in ordered arrays. The torsional barrier of single rotors was computed by ab initio DFT calculations, while dipole-dipole interactions were estimated from classical calculations. Dielectric spectroscopy was used to investigate the rotation dynamics of molecular rotors, where thermally activated reorientations of the dipolar rotors lead to an enhanced dissipation when the driving frequency is close to the natural fluctuation rate of the dipolar rotors. Both the activation energy and relaxation rates were determined experimentally and compared with theoretical calculations.
