Metal ion directed metal-organic rotaxane frameworks with intrinsic features of self-penetration and interpenetration.
Three novel self-catenated 4-connected uninodal (6(5)·8)- metal-organic rotaxane frameworks (MORFs) containing cucurbit[6]uril were constructed from the in situ trans/cis-configuration (1 : 1) of rotaxanes by taking advantage of a d(10) metal ion directed synthesis. It was revealed that the effect of hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking interactions play significant roles in the self-assembly process.
