What is An Auxiliary Approach for the Stereoselective Synthesis of Topologically Chiral Catenanes about?

Catenanes, molecules comprising two rings held together like links in a chain, can exist as two mirror-image forms if the rings lack bilateral symmetry. These ''topological enantiomers'' are unusual because they cannot be interconverted by stretching or bending chemical bonds. To date, their synthesis has required the separation of mirror-image structures by specialist techniques. We present a simple method to allow the synthesis of topologically chiral catenanes, opening them up to investigation in catalysis, sensing, and materials science.
