Additional Information: Funding Information: We thank The Leverhulme Trust for funding from a Research Project Grant (RPG‐2019‐283), in addition to King's College London and the China Scholarship Council (Studentship to QL) as well as the Wellcome Trust and the Royal Society (Sir Henry Dale Fellowship to MM, 202250/Z/16/Z). In respect of periodic DFT calculations, we are grateful to the UK Materials and Molecular Modelling Hub for computational resources, which is partially funded by EPSRC (EP/T022213/1, EP/W032260/1 and EP/P020194/1). We also thank the EPSRC UK National Crystallography Service at the University of Southampton, and the University of Reading's Chemical Analysis Facility, for the collection of the crystallographic data. Hao Lan would like to thank the Bristol Chemical Synthesis CDT, funded by EPSRC (EP/L015366/1), for a PhD studentship. Finally, we thank Prof. Christina Redfield, the University of Oxford, for the help with using 950 MHz ultra‐high resolution NMR spectrometer.
