Tighten your belt : The first aromatic nanobelt has been prepared by Itami and co‐workers. This synthesis of a truncated Vögtle belt constitutes a milestone in long‐standing efforts of numerous chemists. The realization of such a molecule provides not only new opportunities in materials science, but also paves the way to the rational synthesis of carbon nanotubes.
