A new class of micrometer‐sized amorphous infinite coordination particles is selectively prepared from the coordination chemistry of a metallo‐salen building block and Zn 2+ ions. The particles show moderately high H 2 uptake and almost no N 2 adsorption, even though they are amorphous and do not have the well‐defined channels typically used to explain such selectivity in metal–organic framework systems.
