The interface of nitroxide radicals with cucurbit[ n ]urils (CB[ n ]) is covered in this review. Either used as spin probes, spin labels, or stoppers for paramagnetic rotaxanes, nitroxides offer new opportunities to investigate CB[ n ] and their inclusion complexes, especially thanks to EPR spectroscopy. On the other hand, CB[ n ] also offer interesting opportunities to modulate nitroxide properties such as protection or structuring. The multiple back and forth between the two well‐established areas where nitroxides bring information about CB[ n ], and CB[ n ] modulate nitroxide properties, have enabled to shed some light at this new interesting interface.
