Pores containing molecular adapters provide internal selective binding sites, thereby allowing the stochastic sensing of analytes. Herein, we demonstrate that semiaza‐bambusuril (BU) acts as a non‐covalent molecular adapter when lodged within the lumen of the wild‐type α‐hemolysin (WT‐αHL) protein pore. Because the bambusurils are recognized as anion receptors, the anion binding site within the adapter‐nanopore complex allows the detection of chloride anions, thus converting a non‐selective pore into an anion sensor.
