Anion Recognition and Cation-Induced Molecular Motion in a Heteroditopic [2]Rotaxane.

A heteroditopic [2]rotaxane consisting of a calix[4]diquinone-isophthalamide macrocycle and 3,5-bis-amide pyridinium axle components with the capability of switching between two positional isomers in response to barium cation recognition is synthesised. The anion binding properties of the rotaxane&#...
