Membranes derived from metal–organic frameworks present a new category of molecular sieves. As demonstrated by Y. Li., J. Caro et al. in their Communication on page 548 ff., a supported zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF‐7) membrane exhibits high H 2 selectivity by serving as a molecular sieve. The picture shows the synthesis of the ZIF‐7 membrane which includes surface seeding and microwave‐assisted solvothermal synthesis.
