Formation of a "pseudosuitane"-type complex between a triptycene-derived bis(crown ether) host and 1,1'-(anthracene-9,10-diyl)bis(N-benzylmethanaminium): a new method for the synthesis of linear polyrotaxanes

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Jul 21;50(57):7611-3. doi: 10.1039/c4cc02904f.

Abstract

A "pseudosuitane"-type complex between a triptycene-derived bis(crown ether) host and 1,1'-(anthracene-9,10-diyl)bis(N-benzylmethanaminium) can be formed in the solution and the solid state, which provides us a new method for the synthesis of linear polyrotaxanes.
