Previous inverse crown amides have been heterometallic compounds that contain a mixture of alkali‐metal ions (M + ) and magnesium cations. However, the first homometallic (magnesium–magnesium′) inverse crown is unveiled (see picture) by exploiting the isovalent relationship between M + and (BuMg) + .
