Rings on her fingers : The chiral alleno‐acetylenic macrocycle 1 and the related cyclophane 2 with intriguing three‐dimensional shapes were prepared and isolated in diastereoisomerically pure form. The symmetries and structures of these novel unsaturated hydrocarbons were elucidated by 1 H NMR spectroscopy and X‐ray crystallography. The isolated stereoisomeric cyclophanes undergo photoisomerization; presumably the anthracene moieties serve as intramolecular sensitizers.
