Rotaxane organocatalysis
presents a new direction toward controlled
one-pot catalytic reactions. By combining molecular switches and catalysts,
fluorescence and pH-responsive switching along with the exclusive
selectivity of dual catalytic reactions are demonstrated. A newly
designed [2]rotaxane catalyst containing an anthracene group was used
to visualize the catalytic reaction process upon switching the macrocycle.
