Hierarchical helicates based on ketone‐substituted titanium(IV)triscatecholates show different monomer‐dimer behavior depending on different solvents. The dimerization constants of a whole series of differently alkyl‐substituted complexes is analyzed to show that the solvent has a very strong influence on the dimerization. Hereby, effects like solvophobicity/philicity, sterics, electronics of the substituents and weak side‐chain—side‐chain interactions seem to act in concert.
