A [2]rotaxane, whose thread component comprises a central dibenzylammonium group and 9-alkoxyanthracene stoppers and is hosted by a 24-dibenzo-8-crown bead, undergoes an efficient photocatenation step resulting in a [2]rotaxane-to-[2]catenane topology interconversion via a fully reversible [4p+4p] photocyclomerization of terminal anthracene groups.

Abstract
A [2]rotaxane, whose thread component comprises a central dibenzylammonium group and 9-alkoxyanthracene stoppers and is hosted by a 24-dibenzo-8-crown bead, undergoes an efficient photocatenation step resulting in a [2]rotaxane-to-[2]catenane topology interconversion via a fully reversible [4p+4p] photocyclomerization of terminal anthracene groups.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
