Abstract
Introduction of the non‐complexing chiral (S)‐2‐methylbutoxy substituent close to the complexing site of a bis[(bipyridinyl)methoxy]calixarene podand resulted in the induction of an enantiomeric excess of ca. 30 % in the corresponding chiral Cu^I^ complex. Structural investigations by high‐resolution NMR studies led us to propose the left‐handed prohelical [Cu^I^(bpy)~2~] substructure for the major enantiomer.

The hetero-armedp-(tert -butyl)calix[4]arene 1 was synthesized by a stepwise procedure. This ligand presented a very strong complexing behavior towards Cu', giving the chiral complex 2 and parent species when reacted with Cu" salts. High-resolution NMR techniques were employed for the characterizati
