A group of hierarchically ordered PMOs with large cage‐like pores are prepared with organosilica units including ethylene, ethenylene, and phenylene‐bridged silanes. The structure and hydrophobicity of these materials are shown to offer significant advantages for the physical adsorption of lipase from aqueous media and also markedly enhance its activity.
