Oscillators omitted : A self‐assembled inclusion complex between a Ln III [12‐metallacrown‐4] 2 3+ sandwich motif (green and bronze) and a [24‐metallacrown‐8] (purple) is stable in methanol. The Yb III complex has a large quantum yield (0.89 %) and luminescent lifetime (14 μs) in methanol, which are attributed to the exclusion of high‐energy oscillators from within 6.7 Å of the emitting Yb III ion by the metallacrown topology.
