During the revision of this manuscript an interesting study was reported which pertains to a new approach to light harvesting by π-conjugated wires encapsulated in a shape-persistent macrocycle through covalent linkages. However, this approach is different from our work described here. For details see: K. Becker, P. G. Lagoudakis, G. Gaefke, S. Höeger, J. M. Lupton, Angew. Chem. 2007, 119, 3520-3525;
