The widely used [2+2] cycloaddition‐retroelectrocyclization reaction between tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) and an activated alkyne has been shown to occur with “inverted” regiochemistry to give exclusive formation of an unexpected regioisomer. A combined experimental and theoretical study helped unravel the peculiar reaction mechanism underlying the ...

A metastable cyclodextrin monomer can form kinetically trapped supramolecular polymer at low pH. Raising the pH triggers gradual depolymerization into the self‐included monomer with a rate that can be preset by tuning the pH value. The pH‐dependence is directly associated with the rigidity of the cyclodextrin bridge, which is modulated by protonation ...
