Organic frameworks have tempting properties for nanostructured heterogenous catalysts with active sites that are size‐ and pH‐tunable, yet working examples are sparse. The authors present a promising structure type, i.e., cross‐linked assemblies of lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs), whose polar termini form ordered channels with enhanced basic or acidic catalytic activity.
