The formation of discrete macrocycles wrapped around single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) has recently emerged as an appealing strategy to functionalize these carbon nanomaterials and modify their properties. Here, we demonstrate that the reversible disulfide exchange reaction, which proceeds under mild conditions, is ideally suited to install relatively large amounts of mechanically interlocked disulfide macrocycles on the one-dimensional nanotubes. Presumably as a result of error-correction and the presence of relatively rigid, curved π-systems in our
