A molecular cage was designed to trap cyclo‐N 5 ˉ, a highly unstable anion, through collective weak interactions, as reported by Ming Liu et al. in their Research Article ( e202501187 ). By intentionally avoiding strong interactions, the cage effectively preserved the aromaticity of cyclo‐N 5 ˉ, while its decomposition was directly monitored via single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.
