Reaction of di(p-isocyanatophenyl)methane (MDI, 4) with N,N′-di(2-hydroxyethyl)- (1b) or N,N′-di[2-(2′-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl]-4,4′-bipyridinium di(hexafluorophosphate) (1e) and other diols [oligo(ethylene glycol)s and poly(tetramethylene oxide)s] in the presence of bis(p-phenylene)-34-crown-10 (2) afforded polyurethane (pseudo)rotaxanes as statistical (7P or 7R) and segmented analogs 10P (P = pseudorotaxane, R = rotaxane). In 7R a bulky alcohol was incorporated at the chain ends and in 13R a bulky diol as in-chain units to form polyrotaxanes and preclude the possibility of dethreading. The crown ether 2 in 10P and 13R was shown by 1H NMR spectroscopy to be shuttling between the viologen (paraquat) and urethane sites; in DMSO the crown ether prefers the urethane site, probably because of H-bonding with the N–H moieties and complexation of the pyridinium site by the dipolar solvent, while in acetone at low temperatures the viologen site is preferred by the crown ether, with ΔH = −6.91 kcal/mol and ΔS = −22.9 eu for 13R.
