Abstract

Dynamic covalent chemistry (DCC) provides an intriguing and highly efficient approach for building molecules that are usually thermodynamically favored. However, the DCC methods that are efficient enough to construct large, complex molecules, particularly those with three- dimensional (3-D) architectures, are still very limited. Here, for the first time, we have successfully utilized alkyne metathesis, a highly efficient DCC approach, to construct the ...
