Square goes to loop : A selective synthesis of [8]cycloparaphenylene under mild and neutral reaction conditions was achieved in a small number of steps and in a high yield through the square‐shaped platinum biphenyl intermediate 1 . Compound 1 is the smallest cycloparaphenylene derivative synthesized to date.
