Example:

In Drink: A Cultural History of Alcohol (page 219), Iain Gately quotes the July 17, 1974 Virginia Chronicle:

Here then is the source from whence ​sic all your sedition flows, and until those crotalophorus and ostentiferous institutions are disconcantinated — and the individuals who compose them experience a decollation — their querulous bombilations and debulitions will never cease to obnubilate the prospects of their superiors.”

(This is the only example I can find on the web; I find none whatsoever for “disconcantinate”. But one could hardly ask for a finer example.)

Concatenation means a series of interconnected things or events. So this is the opposite.
