Given the unique structural and electronic properties of C 60 , metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) containing C 60 linkers are expected to exhibit interesting characteristics. A new hexakisfullerene derivative possessing two pairs of phenyl pyridine groups attached to two methano‐carbon atoms located at the trans ‐1 positions was designed and synthesized. The four pyridyl nitrogen atoms define a perfectly planar rectangle. This new C 60 derivative was used to assemble the first fullerene‐linked two‐dimensional MOF by coordination with Cd 2+ .
