The missing link : Chiral catenanes have been obtained by including prochiral phosphorus centers in both rings of a [2]catenane moiety. These compounds, which also contain stereogenic carbon atoms, have been prepared by the well known copper( I ) template synthesis and have been isolated as enantiomerically pure, single diastereoisomers.
