The structural and aromaticity control of hexakis(pentafluorophenyl) [34]octaphyrin(1.1.1.0.1.1.1.0) 1 was examined by protonation and deprotonation. Protonation of 1 with methanesulfonic acid (MSA) induced a structural change from a figure‐eight to a rectangular shape, accompanied by an aromaticity change from nonaromatic to strong Hückel aromatic. Deprotonation of 1 with tetrabutylammonium difluorotriphenylsilicate (TBAT) or fluoride (TBAF) produced a mono‐deprotonated species with a similar figure‐eight conformation and nonaromaticity.
