Abstract:Building bridges: The wheels of [3]rotaxane were intramolecularly tethered to yield the first member of cyclochiral, interlocked architectures named “bonnanes” (after the city Bonn, Germany; see scheme). The enantiomers and meso form were separated on an immobilized chiral phase and characterized.
“…Vögtle and co-workers later reported chiral [3]rotaxane derivatives in which the macrocycles are linked by a covalent bridge which they christened “Bonnanes”. 119 …”
We discuss the stereogenic units that have been investigated in interlocked molecules, their application, absolute stereochemistry and propose future directions.

“…Indeed the most common form of molecular handcuffs are (2)handcuff [2]rotaxanes. An alternative name for this type of bridged macromolecule was proposed by Vögtle, 11 who pioneered some of the early work into handcuff rotaxanes. He suggested 'Bonnanes' aer the city of Bonn in which they were based, the former bridge capital of Germany, to reect the bridge between the pair of macrocycles.…”

“…One of the rst reported syntheses of a (2)handcuff [2]rotaxane came from the Vögtle group in 2006 who were investigating covalent reactions of rotaxanes for further preparative chemistry. 11 Vögtle and coworkers rst prepared a [3]rotaxane that consisted of two sulfonamide containing macrocycles about a single axle (Fig. 3a).…”

Mechanically interlocked molecules that employ a handcuff component provide a pathway to highly unusual structures, a new nomenclature is proposed which helps to identify opportunities for employing this structural unit for new architectures.
“…Vo ¨gtle et al reported an early example of the iterative method to synthesize oligorotaxanes in 1999. 66,67 They applied stepwise reactions to prepare an axle molecule bearing a bulky capping moiety. The oligorotaxanes were then synthesized by exploiting the hydrogen bonding between the macrocycles and amide moieties of the axle components.…”

Interest in macromolecules has increased because of their functional properties, which can be tuned using precise organic synthetic methods. For example, desired functions have been imparted by controlling the nanoscale...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
