Custom built : A promising new approach towards more efficient self‐assembled cage receptors through computer‐aided design is demonstrated. The resulting M 4 L 6 tetrahedral cage, internally functionalized with accurately positioned urea hydrogen‐bonding groups (see structure; yellow: predicted, blue: experimental, space‐filling: SO 4 2− ), proved to be a remarkably strong sulfate receptor in water.
