• ; inherent chirality; N-doped macrocycle; nonplanarity; regioselective cyclization; Introduction Chiral macrocycles have attracted significant research interest owing to their diverse applications in enantioselective recognition [1][2], catalysis [3][4], and circularly polarized luminescence [5][6

• , these macrocycles show blue to green emissions with high fluorescence quantum yields (ΦF up to 0.69). Owing to the existence of inherent chirality, two enantiomers of N-doped macrocycle MC1 were successfully isolated by chiral resolution, enabling detailed investigation of its chiroptical properties
