This Perspective describes how chemists can control intermolecular [2 + 2] photodimerizations in the solid state using small molecules as linear templates. The templates assemble olefins into positions for the reaction via hydrogen-bond-driven self-assembly. We attach functional groups to the olefins that complement hydrogen bond donor and acceptor groups of the templates. The resulting cyclobutane-based products form stereospecifically, quantitatively, and in gram amounts. The templates are used to direct the formation of a [2.2]paracyclophane and ladderanes. The organic solid state is an exciting medium within which to control chemical reactivity since it is possible to synthesize, or construct, molecules that may be, otherwise, unobtainable from solution. The products form with a high degree of stereocontrol provided by a crystal lattice. The critical covalent-bond-forming process also occurs in a solvent-free environment. That molecules are virtually frozen in position in a solid also means that this methodology enables chemists to employ principles of molecular recognition and self-assembly to direct and conduct organic synthesis.
