A sealed vessel of molecular dimensions, which can be opened upon acidification, is formed by a synthetic vesicle whose pores can be reversibly sealed with a “stopper” 1 . A prerequisite for the sealing was the use of a membrane composed of an uncharged bolaamphiphile and the pore‐forming monensin pyromellitate.
