The construction and efficient synthesis of hetero[<i>n</i>]rotaxanes with high structural complexity are always attractive challenges. Herein, we demonstrate a facile one-pot preparation of a hetero[4]rotaxane, by employing a self-sorting strategy, which contains an interpenetrated dibenzo-24-crown-8 (<b>DB24C8</b>) based [c2]daisy chain structure and is ended with a benzo-21-crown-7 (<b>B21C7</b>) based rotaxane at each side. The key to the design involved encoding the selective threading usin ...[more]
