A large, strained (SE = 44.2 kcal/mol) and conformationally flexible mixed cyclophane of pyridine and teropyrene was synthesized using two intramolecular Wurtz coupling reactions and an unprecedented Scholl reaction between the unreactive 2 positions of the pyrene systems in a triply bridged pyrenophane. Protonation of the pyridine unit results in a greatly enhanced preference for nesting in the cavity of the highly bent teropyrene system (θcalc = 162.6°) and emergence of a charge transfer absorption band (λmax = 592 nm) due to a long range (5.0‐5.5 Å), through‐space intramolecular transition between the teropyrene and pyridinium units, which does not exist in the neutral cyclophane.
