Q7. (a) Identify the two major interlinked products from the following reaction, and describe the supramolecular interactions and processes involved. Br- Br 2 PF6 Br Br 1. MeCN 2. 4PF6, H2O (7 marks) (b) Give two examples of methods for the synthesis of [2]rotaxane molecules (in your answer, discuss the design features and supramolecular interactions used in each synthesis). (6 marks) (c) For M = Pd, identify the two major products from this reaction, and suggest a mechanism for their interconversion. If M = Pt, how would you expect the reaction to be different?
