Supra‐typed molecules composed of a pyridine‐based amphiphile complexed with 1,5‐, 1,6‐, 2,6‐, or 2,7‐dihydroxy naphthalene self‐assemble in water to form nanotubes. The inner diameters of the nanotubes strongly depend on the naphthalene regioisomers. The excimer fluorescence bands derived from J‐type aggregates of the naphthalene in the nanotubes vary according to the different inner diameters. More information can be found in the Full Paper by N. Kameta and M. Kogiso (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202101354).
