Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="toc"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <graphic position="anchor" id="ga" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgj2fh04kc7" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" />A stable pillar[5]arene-based pseudo[1]rotaxane <bold>P1′</bold> was synthesized by the click reaction, which exhibited a dynamic slow disassembly process upon adding a strong-polar solvent or competitive guest. Moreover, this dynamic behavior might be used as a switch to turn on or off the bioactivity of the biotin moiety in aqueous solution.</p> </abstract>
