Abstract
A sequential nucleophilic substitution method produces rotaxanes from anion-sensitive pseudorotaxanes. First, a nucleophilic bulky tertiary aniline interlocks a pseudorotaxane to form a surrogate rotaxane; this unit then functions as a leaving group for a set of bulky nucleophiles, affording rotaxanes with various linking functionalities, along with the bulky aniline recovered in its original form.

Abstract
In order to investigate the effect of macrocyclization and catenation on the regulation of vibration-induced emission (VIE), the typical VIE luminogen 9,14-diphenyl-9,14-dihydrodibenzo[a, c]phenazine (DPAC) was introduced into the skeleton of a macrocycle and corresponding [2]catenane to evaluate their dynamic relaxation processes. As investigated in detail by femtosecond transient absorption (TA) spectra, the resultant VIE systems revealed precisely tunable emissions upon changing the solvent viscosity, highlighting the key effect of the formation of [2]catenane. Notably, the introduction of an additional pillar[5]arene macrocycle featuring unique planar chirality endows the resultant chiral VIE-active [2]catenane with attractive circularly polarized luminescence in different states. This work not only develops a new strategy for the design of new luminescent systems with tunable vibration induced emission, but also provides a promising platform for the construction of smart chiral luminescent materials for practical applications.

Abstract
Supramolecular vessels emerged as tools to mimic and better understand compartmentalisation, a central aspect of living matter. However, many more applications that go beyond those initial goals have been documented in recent years, including new sensory systems, artificial transmembrane transporters, catalysis, and targeted drug or gene delivery. Peptides, carbohydrates, nucleobases, and steroids bear great potential as building blocks for the construction of supramolecular vessels, possessing complexity that is still difficult to attain with synthetic methods - they are rich in functional groups and well-defined stereogenic centers, ready for noncovalent interactions and further functions. One of the options to tame the functional and dynamic complexity of natural building blocks is to place them at spatially designed positions using synthetic scaffolds. In this review, we summarise the historical and recent advances in the construction of molecular-sized vessels by the strategy that couples synthetic predictability and durability of various scaffolds (cyclodextrins, porphyrins, crown ethers, calix[n]arenes, resorcin[n]arenes, pillar[n]arenes, cyclotriveratrylenes, coordination frameworks and multivalent high-symmetry molecules) with functionality originating from natural building blocks to obtain nanocontainers, cages, capsules, cavitands, carcerands or coordination cages by covalent chemistry, self-assembly, or dynamic covalent chemistry with the ultimate goal to apply them in sensing, transport, or catalysis.

Abstract
Geometric isomerism in mechanically interlocked systems-which arises when the axle of a mechanically interlocked molecule is oriented, and the macrocyclic component is facially dissymmetric-can provide enhanced functionality for directional transport and polymerization catalysis. We now introduce a kinetically controlled strategy to control geometric isomerism in [2]rotaxanes. Our synthesis provides the major geometric isomer with high selectivity, broadening synthetic access to such interlocked structures. Starting from a readily accessible [2]rotaxane with a symmetrical axle, one of the two stoppers is activated selectively for stopper exchange by the substituents on the ring component. High selectivities are achieved in these reactions, based on coupling the selective formation reactions leading to the major products with inversely selective depletion reactions for the minor products. Specifically, in our reaction system, the desired (major) product forms faster in the first step, while the undesired (minor) product subsequently reacts away faster in the second step. Quantitative 1H NMR data, fit to a detailed kinetic model, demonstrates that this effect (which is conceptually closely related to minor enantiomer recycling and related processes) can significantly improve the intrinsic selectivity of the reactions. Our results serve as proof of principle for how multiple selective reaction steps can work together to enhance the stereoselectivity of synthetic processes forming complex mechanically interlocked molecules.

Abstract
Diamine reagents have been used to functionalize a [2]rotaxane building block bearing an activated pentafluorophenyl ester stopper. Upon a first acylation, an intermediate host-guest complex with a terminal amine function is obtained. Dissociation of the intermediate occurs in solution and acylation of the released axle generates a [2]rotaxane with an elongated axle subunit. In contrast, the corresponding [3]rotaxane can be obtained if the reaction conditions are appropriate to stabilize the inclusion complex of the mono-amine intermediate and the pillar[5]arene. This is the case when the stopper exchange is performed under mechanochemical solvent-free conditions. Alternatively, if the newly introduced terminal amide group is large enough to prevent the dissociation, the second acylation provides exclusively a [3]rotaxane. On the other hand, detailed conformational analysis has been also carried out by variable temperature NMR investigations. A complete understanding of the shuttling motions of the pillar[5]arene subunit along the axles of the rotaxanes reported therein has been achieved with the help of density functional theory calculations.

Abstract
Detailed investigations into the stepwise bis-functionalization of a pillar[5]arene-containing rotaxane building block have been carried out. Upon a first stopper exchange, the pillar[5]arene moiety of the mono-acylated product is preferentially located close to its reactive pentafluorophenyl ester stopper, thus limiting the accessibility to the reactive carbonyl group by the nucleophilic reagents. Selective mono-functionalization is thus very efficient. Introduction of a second stopper is then possible to generate dissymmetrical rotaxanes with different amide stoppers. Moreover, when dethreading is possible upon the second acylation, the pillar[5]arene plays the role of a protecting group allowing the synthesis of dissymmetrical axles that are particularly difficult to prepare under statistical conditions. Finally, detailed conformation analysis of the rotaxanes revealed that the position of the pillar[5]arene moiety on its axle subunit is mainly governed by polar interactions in nonpolar organic solvents, whereas solvophobic effects play a major role in polar solvents.

Abstract
Malonate diesters can thread into the cavity of a di(ethylene glycol)-containing macrocycle under the templating effect of a Na+ ion; the corresponding rotaxanes can be synthesized with good efficiency by applying several stoppering reactions. A molecular switch, in which the interlocked macrocycle was moved between two rarely used stations (i.e., malonate and TAA) through the addition of acid/base and the presence/absence of Na+ ions, was constructed using this new recognition system.

Abstract
Pillar[n]arenes are pillar-shaped macrocyclic compounds owing to the methylene bridges linking the para-positions of the units. Owing to their unique pillar-shaped structures, these compounds exhibit various excellent properties compared with other cyclic host molecules, such as versatile functionality using various organic synthesis techniques, substituent-dependent solubility, cavity-size-dependent host-guest properties in organic media, and unit rotation along with planar chiral inversion. These advantages have enabled the high-yield synthesis and rational design of pillar[n]arene-based mechanically interlocked molecules (MIMs). In particular, new types of pillar[n]arene-based MIMs that can dynamically convert between interlocked and unlocked states through unit rotation have been produced. The highly symmetrical pillar-shaped structures of pillar[n]arenes result in simple NMR spectra, which are useful for studying the motion of pillar[n]arene wheels in MIMs and creating sophisticated MIMs with higher-order structures. The creation and application of polymeric MIMs based on pillar[n]arenes is also discussed.

Abstract
The increased use of both pillar[5]arenes and pillar[6]arenes, stimulated by increasingly efficient syntheses of both, has brought forward the question as to what drives the intermediates in this Friedel-Crafts ring formation to form a pillar[5]arene, a pillar[6]arene, or any other sized macrocycle. This study sets out to answer this question by studying both the thermodynamics and kinetics involved in the absence and presence of templating solvents using high-end wB97XD/6-311G(2p,2d) DFT calculations.

Abstract
Several strategies have been successfully utilised to obtain a wide range of interlocked molecules. However, some interlocked compounds are still not obtained directly and/or efficiently from non-interlocked components because the requisites for self-assembly cannot always be enforced. To circumvent such a synthetic problem, a strategy that consists of synthesizing an isolable and storable interlocked building block in a step that precedes its modification is an appealing chemical route to more sophisticated interlocked molecules. Synthetic opportunities and challenges are closely linked to the fact that the mechanical bond might greatly affect the reactivity of a functionality of the encircled axle, but that the interlocked architecture needs to be preserved during the synthesis. Hence, the mechanical bond plays a fundamental role in the strategy employed. This Review focuses on the challenging post-synthetic modifications of interlocked molecules, sometimes through cleavage of the axle's main chain, but always with conservation of the mechanical bond.

Abstract
Despite the impressive number of interlocked molecules described in the literature over the past 30 years, only a few stereoselective syntheses of mechanically chiral rotaxanes have been reported so far. In this study, we present the first diastereoselective synthesis of mechanically planar chiral [1]rotaxanes, that has been achieved using the active template Cu-mediated alkyne–azide cycloaddition reaction. This synthetic method has been applied to the preparation of a [1]rotaxane bearing a labile stopper that can then be substituted without disruption of the mechanical bond. This approach paves the way for the synthesis of a wide variety of mechanically planar chiral [1]rotaxanes, hence allowing the study of the properties and potential applications of this class of interlocked molecular architectures. The first diastereoselective synthesis of mechanically planar chiral [1]rotaxanes has been achieved using the active template Cu-mediated alkyne–azide cycloaddition reaction.![]()

Abstract
Selective monofunctionalization of substrates with distant, yet equally reactive functional groups is difficult to achieve, as it requires the second functional group to selectively modulate its reactivity once the first functional group has reacted. We now show that mechanically interlocked catalytic rings can effectively regulate the reactivity of stoppering groups in rotaxanes over a distance of about 2 nm. Our mechanism of communication is enabled by a unique interlocked design, which effectively removes the catalytic rings from the substrates by fast dethreading as soon as the first reaction has taken place. Our method not only led to a rare example of selective monofunctionalization, but also to a "molecular if function". Overall, the study presents a way to get distant functional groups to communicate with each other in a reaction-history-dependent manner by creating linkers that can ultimately perform logical operations at the molecular level.

Abstract
Rotaxane building blocks bearing 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl) benzenesulfonate (BTBS) stoppers have been efficiently prepared from a pillar[5]arene derivative, 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl) benzenesulfonyl chloride (BTBSCl) and different diols, namely 1,10-decanediol and 1,12-dodecanediol. The BTBS moieties of these compounds are good leaving groups and stopper exchange reactions could be achieved by treatment with different nucleophiles thus affording rotaxanes with ester, thioether or ether stoppers.

Abstract
A rotaxane scaffold incorporating two dithiolane anchoring units for the modification of gold surfaces has been functionalized with multiple copies of a redox unit, namely ferrocene. Surface modification has been first assessed at the single molecule level by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) imaging, while tip enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) provided the local vibrational signature of the ferrocenyl subunits of the rotaxanes grafted onto the gold surface. Finally, oxidation of the redox moieties within a rotaxane scaffold grafted onto gold microelectrodes has been investigated by ultrafast cyclic voltammetry. Intramolecular electron hopping is indeed extremely fast in this system. Moreover, the kinetics of charge injection depends on the molecular coverage due to the influence of intermolecular contacts on molecular motions.
