Anion- and solvent-induced rotary dynamics and sensing in a perylene diimide [3]catenane

A novel dynamic [3]catenane consisting of a large four-station central macrocycle which incorporates a bay tetrachloro-functionalized perylene diimide (PDI) unit and two triazolium anion binding motifs, mechanically bonded with two smaller isophthalamide-containing macrocycles is constructed using a...
