A molecular knot refers to a specific type of molecular structure in which a chain of atoms, typically composed of carbon or other elements, is intertwined in a way that forms a knot-like topology. These structures can be thought of as the molecular equivalent of traditional knots, and they can be created intentionally through chemical synthesis or can appear naturally in some biomolecules.
