Abstract
Using stepwise cyclization reactions followed by an intramolecular
coupling., a criss-cross overlapped tetrathiafulvalenophane was
prepared. The structure of the cis,cis isomer was elucidated by
X-ray crystallography which revealed a host-guest complex with
chloroform. This electron donor was used for the synthesis of a
topologically new type of [2]catenane.
