Since the advent of supramolecular chemistry, there has been keen interest in the synthesis of interlocked molecules, given their unique potential to act as receptors, molecular machines and even motors. Despite advances in the complexity of molecular machines that can be synthesised and operated in solution, reports of the operation or even attachment of complex supramolecular systems on solid surfaces are less common. Synthetic challenges and a lack of adequate characterisation techniques to monitor the thermodynamic and kinetic influences governing assembly at the solution-surface interface has slowed progress in this area of research. This Review looks at the developments in the field of covalently assembled interlocked architectures on gold, silica and polymer surfaces, highlighting the differences observed between solution and surface assembly of these unique structures.
自从超分子化学问世以来，互锁分子的合成一直备受关注，因为它们具有作为受体、分子机器甚至发动机的独特潜力。尽管在溶液中能够合成和操作的分子机器的复杂性方面取得了进展，但关于复杂超分子系统在固体表面上的操作甚至附着的报道却较少见。合成方面的挑战以及缺乏足够的表征技术来监测溶液 - 表面界面处控制组装的热力学和动力学影响，减缓了该研究领域的进展。本综述着眼于金、二氧化硅和聚合物表面上共价组装互锁结构领域的发展，突出了这些独特结构在溶液和表面组装之间观察到的差异。
