Copper(II) hydroxide is converted directly to HKUST‐1 (Cu 3 (btc) 2 ) after only 5 min at room‐temperature in aqueous ethanolic solution without the need of additional solvents. Scale up to the kilogram scale does not influence porous properties yielding pure‐phase product with a remarkable total surface area exceeding 1700 m 2 g −1 featuring aggregates of nanometer‐sized crystals (<600 nm) and extremely high space‐time yields.
