Abstract

A supramolecular network and its film were prepared via intermolecular hydrogen bonding of a [2]rotaxane with three ureido pyrimidinone groups. Adding less polar solvents such as CHCl3 to the rotaxane afforded a swollen rotaxane-cross-linked network. The properties of the film obtained by drying were evaluated to characterize it.
