Rosette nanotubes with 1.4 nm inner diameter from a tricyclic variant of the Lehn-Mascal G--C base.
A new strategy to access rosette nanotubes with increased inner diameter is presented and demonstrated through the synthesis and self-assembly studies of a tricyclic variant of the Lehn-Mascal G--C base.
