Two chiral trilactams, cup‐shaped (−)‐ 1 and bowl‐shaped (−)‐ 2 , were synthesized. Single crystal X‐ray analysis revealed that (−)‐ 1 formed dimer structure by the formation of three NH⋅⋅⋅O type complementary hydrogen bonds at three amide moieties. The equilibrium constant ( K eq ) and kinetic parameters ▵ H ° and ▵ S ° of the dimer formation phenomenon of (−)‐ 1 were determined by variable temperature proton NMR. Further binding energy calculation on both (−)‐ 1 and (−)‐ 2 dimers confirmed the more favourable formation of (−)‐ 1 dimer than (−)‐ 2 dimer, explaining the significant solubility difference of the two against the less polar solvent, such as CHCl 3 . Trilactam (−)‐ 1 afforded coordination polymer by complexation with Zn 2+ , keeping the capsule‐like structure.
