The resorcinol–octadecanal cyclotetramer 1 forms an ion channel in planar lipid bilayers. A stable conductance level is observed with well‐defined transitions between open and closed states. The channel discriminates K + from Na + ions as well as cations from anions (for example, K + from Cl − ), as indicated by permeability ratios of 3 and 20, respectively. Rb + ions block the K + ion current.
