A novel nickel(II) hexaaza macrocyclic complex, [Ni(L R , R )](ClO 4 ) 2 ( 1 ), containing chiral pendant groups was synthesized by an efficient one‐pot template condensation and characterized (L R , R ═1,8‐di(( R )‐α‐methylnaphthyl)‐1,3,6,8,10,13‐hexaazacyclotetradecane). The crystal structure of compound 1 was determined by single‐crystal X‐ray analysis. The complex was found to have a square‐planar coordination environment for the nickel(II) ion. Open framework [Ni(L R,R )] 3 [C 6 H 3 (COO) 3 ] 2 ( 2 ) was constructed from the self‐assembly of compound 1 with deprotonated 1,3,5‐benzenetricarboxylic acid, BTC 3− . Chiral discrimination of rac ‐1,1′‐bi‐2‐naphthol and rac ‐2,2,2‐trifluoro‐1‐(9‐anthryl)ethanol was performed to determine the chiral recognition ability of the chiral complex ( 1 ) and its self‐assembled framework ( 2 ). Binaphthol showed a good chiral discrimination on the framework ( 2 ). The optimum experimental conditions for the chiral discrimination were examined by changing the weight ratio between the macrocyclic complex 1 or self‐assembled framework 2 and racemates. The detailed synthetic procedures, spectroscopic data including single‐crystal X‐ray analysis, and the results of the chiral recognition for the compounds are described.
