Abstract: | This review highlights developments since 2008 in the field of polypseudorotaxanes and polyrotaxanes. Progress in synthetic polyrotaxane chemistry has resulted in the preparation of numerous functionalized polymers for various applications in areas such as molecular machines, stimuli responsive materials, supramolecular gels and molecular sensors. This new genre of supramolecular polymers is advancing rapidly with several groups developing novel materials with unique characteristics. |
