Design and synthesis of a bis-macrocyclic host and guests as building blocks for small molecular knots

The thread–link–cut (TLC) approach has previously shown promise as a novel method to synthesize molecular knots. The modular second-generation approach to small trefoil knots described herein involves electrostatic interactions between an electron-rich bis-macrocyclic host compound and electron-defi...
