Supramolecular chemistry

a connection between molecular components that are not covalently joined but cannot separate without breaking a bond, as in rotaxanes and catenanes.

In supramolecular chemistry, mechanical bond refers to a connection between molecular components that are not covalently joined but cannot separate without breaking a bond, as in rotaxanes and catenanes. This meaning comes from Stoddart (2017) in Angewandte Chemie International Edition.[1]
