IR Spectroscopy on Jet-Cooled Isolated Two-Station Rotaxanes

High-resolution IR spectroscopy has been employed to study isolated, switchable [2]rotaxanes. IR absorption spectra of two-station rotaxanes, their separate thread, and macrocycle components, as well as those of the individual stations incorporated into the thread, have been measured in the 1800–100...

Zusammenfassung:High-resolution IR spectroscopy has been employed to study isolated, switchable [2]rotaxanes. IR absorption spectra of two-station rotaxanes, their separate thread, and macrocycle components, as well as those of the individual stations incorporated into the thread, have been measured in the 1800–1000 cm–1 region. These spectra have been fully analyzed, aided by quantum chemical predictions of the IR spectra. From these analyses, a comprehensive picture emerges of the conformational structure and binding interactions between the mechanically interlocked components of the rotaxane.
