Abstract

A serendipitous [2]catenane has been prepared in three steps from commercially available starting materials. The interlocked topology of the catenane has been confirmed by single crystal X-ray structural determination. The rings of the catenane may rotate relative to one another – a process that may be controlled by varying solvent or temperature.
