Template-directed synthesis of pi-conjugated porphyrin [2]rotaxanes and a [4]catenane based on a six-porphyrin nanoring
[2]Rotaxanes consisting of butadiyne-linked porphyrin dimers threaded through a phenanthroline-containing macrocycle, can be synthesised by an active-metal template directed copper-mediated Glaser coupling, in yields of up to 61%, without requiring a large excess of the macrocycle. The crystal struc...
