Chiral organic molecules possessing high quantum yields, circular dichroism, and circularly polarized luminescence values have great potential as optically active materials for future applications. Recently, the identification of a promising class of inherently chiral compounds was reported, namely macrocyclic 1,3‐butadiyne‐linked pseudo‐meta[2.2]paracyclophanes, displaying high circular dichroism and related gabs values albeit modest quantum yields. Increasing the quantum yields in an attempt to get bright circularly polarized light emitters, the high‐yielding heterocyclization of those 1,3‐butadiyne bridges resulting in macrocyclic 2,5‐thienyls‐linked pseudo‐meta [2.2]paracyclophanes is herein described. The chiroptical properties of both, the previously reported 1,3‐butadiyne, and the novel 2,5‐thienyl bridged macrocycles of various sizes, are experimentally recorded, and theoretically described using density‐functional theory.
