We report the development of supramolecular bis(cholyl) ion channels using oxalamide and hydrazide as selectivity filters. The hydrazide system showed superior chloride transport activity to oxalamide via the formation of a barrel stave channel. The better chloride recognition within the hydrazide channel over the oxalalmide channel was confirmed from the theoretical calculations.
