Mono‐ and multinuclear complexes of ruthenium and [ n ]cycloparaphenylene (CPP, n =5 and 6) were synthesized in excellent yields through ligand exchange of the cationic complex [(Cp)Ru(CH 3 CN) 3 ](PF 6 ) with CPP. In the multinuclear complexes, ruthenium selectively coordinated to alternate paraphenylene units to give bis‐ and tris‐coordinated Ru complexes for [5] and [6]CPPs, respectively. Single‐crystal X‐ray analysis revealed the Ru was coordinated with η 6 ‐hapticity on the convex surface of CPP.
