Difference between Catenane and Macrocycle

Catenane vs. Macrocycle

A catenane is a mechanically-interlocked molecular architecture consisting of two or more interlocked macrocycles, i.e. a molecule contaning two or more interwined rings. Macrocycles are often described as a molecule containing twelve or more atoms with at least one large ring.

Similarities between Catenane and Macrocycle

Catenane and Macrocycle have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cyclic compound, Molecular knot, Rotaxane.

Cyclic compound

A cyclic compound (ring compound) is a term for a compound in the field of chemistry in which one or more series of atoms in the compound is connected to form a ring.
