Highly stable porous polymer networks (PPNs) are synthesized through Yamamoto homocoupling reaction between tetrahedral monomers. Among those polymers, PPN‐4 shows exceptionally high Langmuir surface area of 10063 m 2 g −1 (SA BET : 6461 m 2 g −1 ). It also exhibits ultra‐high hydrogen (158 mg g −1 ), methane (389 mg g −1 ), and carbon dioxide (2121 mg g −1 ) storage capacities. These properties make it a perfect adsorbent for clean energy applications.
