Relative displacement between pre-stressed and frictionally interlocked components can play a major role in the failure of mechanical assemblies.
Recently, Schurko and Loeb published a metal organic framework (MOF) material containing dynamically interlocked components.
Here, a similar a approach was pursued through the formulation of a criterion consisting of multiple interlocked components that had to hold for accepting the data as supportive of the hypothesis.

b13d In the current study we have modified our previous catenane design by incorporating a zinc II) metalloporphyrin unit into one of the interlocked macrocyclic components, and a 3,5-pyridine bis amide) motif into the second macrocycle component, in order to introduce an intercomponent pyridine zinc interaction into the final interlocked structure.
Species made of interlocked molecular components are most attractive candidates for these purposes.
30 In addition, a number of through-space interactions between the two interlocked macrocyclic components of the catenane were observed by 2D H NMR ROESY spectroscopy in CD2Cl2 and [D6]DMSO, which provided further supportive evidence for the interlocked nature and proposed solution conformation of the [2]catenane (see the Supporting Information, Figures S20 and S24).
[ n]Catenanes, a class of mechanically bonded molecules comprising n interlocked ring components, 1 have received ever-growing attention over recent decades on account of their interesting topologies and aesthetic appeal, in addition to their potential applications as molecular machines, 2 imaging agents, 3 host systems 4 and functional nanomaterials.
We have previously employed a chloride-anion-templated, amide-condensation-based clipping strategy to assemble [2]catenane architectures in which bidentate hydrogen-bond-donor groups from each of the interlocked macrocyclic components converge towards a central, three-dimensional binding cavity, where the halide anion template is encapsulated.
The interlocked part is the essence of it, since Dufresne is fascinated by coincidence.
HPLC analysis was used to establish the purity of rotaxanes 4 a⋅NO 2⋅OTf and 4 b⋅NO 2⋅OTf, which exhibited marked differences in retention times to the non-interlocked axle and macrocycle components, providing further evidence as to the interlocked nature of the rotaxane species (see SI).
When all these components are interlocked the results are as explosive as they are engrossing.
