When a chemical entity is restrained in a cage most of its properties are redefined. Single‐crystal X‐ray analyses, solid‐state 15 N NMR techniques, and DFT calculations have been used to investigate the proton position and dynamics in H + ⊂crypt‐111 iodide and four halogen‐bonded derivatives. The unique characteristics and distinctive features of the confined space within the cavity of crypt‐111 are confirmed. More information can be found in the Full Paper by G. Resnati et al. on page 14462.
