Enantiopure hemicryptophanes efficiently discriminate chiral ammonium neurotransmitters. The ephedrine and norephedrine molecules associate with hemicryptophane hosts to form 1:1 and 1:2 host‐guest complexes. Binding constants are determined by fitting the 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) titration curves to give β 1 and β 2 values, which are used to characterize the diastereomeric and enantiomeric discriminating potentials of the hosts.
