The detection of magnetochiral dichroism (MChD; CD: circular dichroism) in a suspension of J‐aggregate particles of an achiral amphiphilic nonmetalated porphyrin renews the interest for porphyrins in supramolecular chemistry and reinforces the concept that novel advanced materials can be obtained through self‐assembly and auto‐organization processes (see picture).
