Abstrakt: Despite vast applications of macrocycles in supramolecular chemistry, achieving long‐lived emissions including room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP) or thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) for potential use still presents a great challenge. This work first reports hydrogen‐bonded (H‐bonded) macrocycles emitting RTP and TADF by introducing various donors onto the same aramide skeleton containing a rigid acceptor. The formation of charge transfer effectively enhances the photoluminescence efficiency. Aromatic carbonyl groups promote the intersystem crossing. The drastically reduced flexibility of chromophores fixed by the H‐bonded macrocyclic framework contributes to suppress the nonradiative decay to stabilize triplet excitons. Therefore, RTP and TADF are acquired by altering donors, and are systematically revealed by comparisons with control compounds and theoretical calculations. Finally, near white‐light emission (CIE, 0.30, 0.33) is realized via host–guest interactions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
