A simple and highly effective ligand system for the copper(I)-mediated assembly of rotaxanes.
in Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English)
| Description | We have discovered a simple and effective ligand set for the assembly of imine-based rotaxanes around copper(I) ions. The reactions proceed with high yield within a few minutes at ambient temperature and provide a readily accessible alternative to the classic CuI-(dpp)2rotaxanes. An analogous [3]rotaxane is obtained in excellent yield by replacing the amine with a diamine, thus showing the suitability of the system for the construction of higher order interlocked structures. |
| Exploitation Route | We anticipate that this facile method may find application in the synthesis of a range of interlocked molecular structures. |
