We describe the synthesis of a new class of trisulfonamide calix[6]arene-based wheels that can bind dialkylviologen salts, in apolar media. The threading process occurs through a selective ion-pair recognition, established by the sulfonamide groups with the counterions of the bipyridinium salts, that dictates a conformational rearrangement of the corresponding pseudorotaxanes.
