A series of quadruple‐stranded Na+and Ca2+complexes with octadentate cyclen ligands was synthesized to produce complexes that contained four different side‐arm combinations (one triazolecoumarin group and three pyridine groups (1), four pyridine groups (2), one triazolecoumarin group and three quinoline groups (3), and four quinoline groups (4)). X‐ray crystallographic analysis revealed that no significant changes occurred in the stereostructure of these complexes upon replacing one pyridine group with a triazolecoumarin moiety, or by replacing Na+ions with Ca2+ions, although the coordination number of the complexes in the solid state decreased when pyridine groups were replaced by quinoline groups. In solution, all of the side arms were arranged in a propeller‐like pattern to yield an enantiomer pair ofΔandΛforms in each metal complex. The addition of atert‐butoxycarbonyl (Boc)‐protected amino acid anion, that is, a coordinative chiral carboxylate anion, to the cyclenCa2+complex induced circular dichroism (CD) signals in the aromatic region by forming a 1:1 mixture of diastereomeric ternary complexes with opposite complex chirality, whilst the corresponding Na+complexes rarely showed any response. In complexes1‐Ca2+and3‐Ca2+, this chirality‐transfer process was efficiently followed by considering the induction of the CD signals at two different wavelengths, that is, the coumarin‐chromophore region and the aza‐aromatic region. The sign and intensity of the CD signal were significantly dependent on both the nature of the aza‐aromatic moiety and the enantiomeric purity of the external anion. These Ca2+complexes worked as effective probes for the determination of the enantiomeric excess of the chiral anion. The cyclenCa2+complexes also interacted with the non‐coordinativeΔ‐TRISPHAT anion through an ion‐pairing mechanism to achieve chirality transfer from the anion to the metal complex; both complexes1‐Ca2+and3‐Ca2+clearly showed induced CD signals in the coumarin‐chromophore region, owing to ion‐paring interactions with theΔ‐TRISPHAT anion. Thus, the proper combination of an octadentate cyclen ligand and a metal center demonstrated effective chirality transfer.
