S.) of the authors proposed the use of the term “mechanostereochemistry” to encompass all aspects of the “mechanical bond” in chemistry. The term mechanostereochemistry has been employed recently in another context. See: I. Frank, U. Friedrichs. Nat. Chem. 1, 264 (2009). (http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nchem.266)

• 24. Previously, we had advocated (M. C. T. Fyfe, P. T. Glink, S. Menzer, J. F. Stoddart, A. J. P. White, D. J. Williams. Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 36, 2068 (1997)) the use of the term “co-conformation” to designate the different three-dimensional spatial arrangements of the components of mechanically interlocked molecules. (http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/anie.199720681)
• 25. While conformational diastereoisomerism is now commonplace throughout the reaches of organic chemistry (for an example at the top end of the scale of energy barriers to interconversion, consider the trianthranilides—see: A. Hoorfar, W. D. Ollis, J. A. Price, J. S. Stephanatou, J. F. Stoddart. J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. 1 1649 (1982)), configurational diastereoisomerism dominates organic chemistry across a wide spectrum of different compound types from those where it is displayed around carbon–carbon double bonds in the cis and trans sense (e.g., the TTF unit in the structural formula in Fig. 4a, bottom) to the more conventional situations that exist as soon as two or more chiral elements coexist in the same molecule. Even epimers abound. (http://dx.doi.org/10.1039/p19820001649)
