Guest‐love‐ometer : The equilibrium inside – outside atropisomeric ratio of ortho ‐substituted phenyl cavitands shows a strong solvent dependence. The competition between the ortho ‐substituent and the solvent guest for the bowl cavity leads to a sensitive system for the measurement of relative guest binding affinities.
