Template‐Free Self‐Assembly of Molecular Trefoil Knots and Double Trefoil Knots Featuring Cp*Rh Building Blocks

Abstract: on the occasiono fhis 65th birthday Abstract: Understanding and controlling the topology of self-assembled structures plays af undamentalr ole in supramolecular chemistry. Herein, the preparation of as eries of tetranuclear metallarectangles and hexanuclear trefoil knots featuring Cp*Rh buildingb locks by template-free self-assembly with four different rigid and flexible ligandsi sd escribed. Transformations between the trefoil knots and the corre-sponding macrocycles can be induced by using concentration effe… Show more

“…Only the signals corresponding to the tetranuclear macrocycle were observed in the NMR spectra of 56 until the concentration was decreased to 0.1 mM. Moreover, a mild and reversible topological transformation between the octanuclear Solomon link and a [6Rh + 2Ag] heterometallic trefoil knot , was realized by introducing and then removing silver­(I) ions.…”

“…Changing the concentration or ratio of methanol to DMF has been shown to induce reversible supramolecular transformations between metalla [2]catenanes and the corresponding monorectangles. 53,54 This structural interconversion might be due to a weakening of the p-p stacking interactions by changing the concentration or the addition of DMF molecules. This inspired us to explore whether the transformation of metalla-Borromean rings could also occur, given the existence of multiple p-p stacking interactions between E5 and central unit of L1.…”

“…Fujita and coworkers reported a number of catenanes and a 7 1 knot through the coordination of Ag + ions and pyridine peptides, but their structural transformations were not studied. 34,35 The group of Jin has reported the selective construction of a series of intricate structures, such as molecular Borromean ring assemblies, [44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51] Solomon links, [52][53][54] 3 1 , 55 double trefoil, 56 and 4 1 knots, 57 and [2,3,4]catenanes. 24,58 The topological transformations between these structures were explored in detail through concentration-, solvent-and hostguest chemistry effects or via the chemical reactivity of the metal ions and organic ligands.…”

“…Half‐sandwich metal‐containing precursors have been useful choices for the construction of interlocked structures . Combined with binuclear half‐sandwich organometallic clips and suitable pyridyl ligands, the selective formation of molecular Borromean rings, metalla[2]catenanes, metalla[3]catenanes, non‐catenane interlocked ring‐in‐ring motifs, knots, and Solomon links has been realized using coordination‐driven assembly. Nevertheless, interlocked cyclic metalla[3]catenanes comprising half‐sandwich organometallic fragments remains unknown.…”
