The dynamic duo : A more than tenfold increase in the yield of the chiral macropolycyclic polyether containing two 2,6‐disubstituted 1,3,5,7‐ cis ‐tetraoxadecalin systems was obtained under thermodynamic conditions from a dynamic combinatorial virtual library with templating cesium ions (>95 % yield, see schematic representation) relative to kinetic syntheses (<8 % yields in their macropolycyclization steps), even when the same template was used.
