You can′t separate this couple : One of the azo‐substituted tripycenes synthesized in this work is highlighted in front of its UV‐Vis absorption spectrum. Even though the azobenzenes are separated by a sp 3 center, they experience excitonic coupling, as illustrated by the lightning. More information can be found in the Research Article by H. A. Wegner and co‐workers (DOI: 10.1002/chem.202200972). Design by Felix Bernt.
