Gridlock : A porous metal–organic framework with an interior tailored supramolecularly with organic groups is described (see structure; two grids have been differentiated using cyan and gray, while the yellow spheres represent included methyl groups). The approach relies on inverting the role of a secondary building unit (SBU) and an organic linker such that the organic linker serves as a node and the SBU serves as a linear bridge. The organic node used to construct the framework has been obtained by way of a template‐directed solid‐state organic synthesis.
