SUMMARY Mono-, oligo-and polyamide rotaxanes with the macrocycle cucurbituril are synthesized easily with high yields by interfacial condensation. The complex of cucurbituril with 1,6-hexanediarnmonium ion is used as preorganized structure. With different acid and diacid chlorides a great variety of amiderotaxanes and polyrotaxanes can be synthesized. The characterization is difficult due to the low solubility of cucurbituril and rotaxanes. But with the methods of IR, DTA, 'H NMR and elemental analyses, the existence of the rotaxanes is shown.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
