Thumbnail image of graphical abstract

An inorganic/organic polypseudorotaxane … is formed by the template-assisted cofacial assembly of a ring-shaped polyoxomolybdate cluster with a rigid-rod molecule having a high affinity toward the polyoxomolybdate surface, as described by A. Tsuda, T. Aida, and co-workers in their Communication on page 2070 ff. For the construction of this nanoobject, the polyoxomolybdate clusters are threaded along oligomeric p-phenylenebutadiynylene units and are “stitched” together, as shown in the cover picture, to form the 1D structure.
