Coherent tunneling electron transport through molecular wires has been theoretically established as a temperature-independent process. Although several experimental studies have shown counter examples, robust models to describe this temperature dependence have not been thoroughly developed. Here, we demonstrate that dynamic molecular structures lead to temperature-dependent conductance within coherent tunneling regime. Using a custom-built variable-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy break-junction instrument, we find that oligonphenylenes exhibit clear temperature-dependent conductance. Our calculations reveal that thermally activated dihedral rotations allow these molecular wires to have a higher probability of being in a planar conformation. As the tunneling occurs primarily through π-orbitals, enhanced coplanarization substantially increases the time-averaged tunneling probability. These calculations are consistent with the observation that more rotational pivot points in longer molecular wires leads to larger temperature-dependence on conductance. These findings reveal that molecular conductance within coherent and off-resonant electron transport regimes can be controlled by manipulating dynamic molecular structure.
