Molecular imprinting of surfaces of mesoporous sorbents is a novel method for introducing template‐selective recognition sites. This method makes use of the unique surface environment of hexagonally packed mesopore surfaces of selected pore sizes (see the schematic representation) and coats such surfaces with functional ligands by binding to a metal ion template.
