The photochemical transformation of the monostyrylcalix[4]arenes 12a and 12b either leads to inherent chiral calix[4]phenanthrenes 13a and 13b under basic reaction conditions or to unexpected products of an acid‐catalyzed ring cleavage of the macrocycle. Studies towards the reaction mechanism and the optimization of the reaction conditions are presented.(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)
