Abstract

Mechanically linked poly[2]rotaxanes have been successfully constructed via the hierarchical self-assembly strategy. The integration of two noninterfering noncovalent recognition motifs facilitates chain extension of the B21C7-based [2]rotaxane monomer, demonstrating the capabilities to form self-standing films with preferable transparency and softness.
