Slowly does it! Di‐ n ‐alkylammonium ions (such as 2⋅ H + ) thread the annulus of calix[5]arene 1 to yield stable [2]pseudorotaxanes. The ease of formation of this hitherto unknown family of interpenetrated supermolecules is predominantly determined by salt ion‐pairing effects, whereas the time course of the threading/dethreading process depends on the length of the cation alkylammonium chains.
