Metal-organic rotaxane frameworks (MORFs) attracted much attention in the past years for construction of intelligent functional materials. Herein, a one-pot synthesis is reported of a three-dimensional (3D) cucurbit[7]uril (Q[7])-based MORF under hydrothermal conditions, namely Q[7]-MORF-1, formed by encapsulating the anionic benzoate moieties of the tricarboxylate ligand into the cavity of Q[7]. Furthermore, Q[7]-MORF-1 shows dual-capture capacity for iodine and K selectively among the alkali metal ions. The captured molecular iodine is included in the cavity of Q[7] through halogen-bonding interactions and the K cations are positioned at the carbonyl port of the Q[7] through K-O coordination interactions.

Mechanically interlocked molecules, such as rotaxanes, have drawn significant attention within supramolecular chemistry. Although a variety of macrocycles have been thoroughly explored in rotaxane synthesis, metal-organic macrocycles remain relatively under-investigated. Aluminum molecular rings, with their inner cavities and numerous binding sites, present a promising option for constructing rotaxanes.

The preparation of highly rigid cobalt(II)- and copper(II)-organic frameworks incorporating a tetralactam [2]rotaxane as a ligand is described. The interlocked ligand is functionalized with two pairs of carboxylate groups placed at each counterpart, thus limiting its dynamics within the crystal. The solid structure of the metal-organic rotaxane frameworks showed different, unprecedented polycatenation modes of grids, depending on the employed metal, providing great rigidity to the structures.

Controllable preparation of materials with new structure has always been the top priority of polymer materials science research. Here, the supramolecular binding strategy is adopted to develop covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with novel structures and functions. Based on this, a two-dimensional crown-ether ring threaded covalent organic framework (COF), denoted as Crown-COPF with intrinsic photothermal (PTT) and photodynamic (PDT) therapeutic capacity, was facilely developed using crown-ether threaded rotaxane and porphyrin as building blocks.

Mechanically interlocked architecture has inspired the fabrication of numerous molecular systems, such as rotaxanes, catenanes, molecular knots, and their polymeric analogues. However, to date, the studies in this field have only focused on the molecular-scale integrity and topology of its unique penetrating structure. Thus, the topological material design of such architectures has not been fully explored from the nano- to the macroscopic scale.

Herein we report two 2D layered metal-organic rotaxane frameworks (MORFs), WUST-1 and WUST-2, constituted by a ternary host-guest complex based on cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]) and an ()-1-methyl-4-[4-(pyridin-4-yl)styryl] pyridinium (G1) ligand, and different metal ions and auxiliary linkers. Both MORFs are stable in water and highly fluorescence emissive, and can selectively sense nitrofurazone with low detection limits.
