A general synthesis of triazolium‐containing [2]rotaxanes, which could not be accessed by other methods, is reported. It is based on a sequential strategy starting from a well‐designed macrocycle transporter which contains a template for dibenzo‐24‐crown‐8 and a N ‐hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) moiety. The sequence is: 1) synthesis by slippage of a [2]rotaxane building‐block; 2) its elongation at its NHS end; 3) the delivery of the macrocycle to the elongated part of the axle by an induced translational motion; 4) the contraction process to yield the targeted [2]rotaxane and recycle the initial transporter.
