Unusual octahedral hexamers built up from triangular, corner‐linked cobalt trimers (see figure), form the basis of a novel three‐dimensional cobalt isophthalate obtained by a solvothermal route. This structure provides a new example of the concept of scale chemistry, in which an {Na 6 Co 6 O 26 } “super octahedron” is connected in a classical ReO 3 architecture.
