Tautomerization‐induced symmetry breaking in isocytosine heterocycle followed by dimerization, produces two different hydrogen‐bonding interfaces pointing in orthogonal directions. With carefully designed bicyclic molecular scaffolds, this unique aggregation mode was explored to construct supramolecular tubular polymers with large internal cavities.
