To develop a metal–organic framework (MOF) for hydrogen storage, SNU‐200 incorporating a 18‐crown‐6 ether moiety as a specific binding site for selected cations has been synthesized. SNU‐200 binds K + , NH 4 + , and methyl viologen(MV 2+ ) through single‐crystal to single‐crystal transformations. It exhibits characteristic gas‐sorption properties depending on the bound cation. SNU‐200 activated with supercritical CO 2 shows a higher isosteric heat ( Q st ) of H 2 adsorption (7.70 kJ mol −1 ) than other zinc‐based MOFs. Among the cation inclusions, K + is the best for enhancing the isosteric heat of the H 2 adsorption (9.92 kJ mol −1 ) as a result of the accessible open metal sites on the K + ion.
