Abstract
Using stepwise cyclization reactions followed by an intramolecular cou pling, the criss-cross overlapped tetrathiafulvalenophane 8 was readil y prepared. The structure of the cis,cis isomer was elucidated by X-ra y 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 11-4PF(6), under ultra-high pressure (10 kbar).
