General Description
Pyridine N-oxide axle with [2]rotaxanes was synthesized via an anion templated threading-followed-by-stoppering strategy.
Hazard
Probably flammable and toxic.
Purification Methods
Purify the N-oxide by crystallisation from Et2O and by vacuum sublimation. The picrolonate has m 182-184o. [Katritzky J Chem Soc 2407 1956, Beilstein 20 III/IV 2305, 20/5 V 217.]
