Up to three Cu 1 ions and three catenane rings can be interlocked on the arms of the bicyclic central unit (shown schematically on the right); thus, the first multiring catenanes not based on macromonocycles, but on macrobicycles are formed. The synthesis of these supramolecular complexes uses the three‐dimensional template effect of the Cu 1 ions.
