Abstract

The wrapping of an aromatic oligoamide helix around an active ester-containing [2]rotaxane enforced the sliding and the sequestration of the surrounding macrocycle around a part of the axle for which it has no formal affinity. The foldamer-mediated compartmentalization of the [2]rotaxane shuttle was subsequently used to prepare an improbable rotaxane.
