The Confinement Effect of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) allows MoO 2 nanoparticles@porous carbon to be fabricated by subliming MoO 3 into the pores of the MOF UIO‐66. The resulting MoO 2 nanpoarticles (NPs) were converted into MoP at 850 °C by PH 3 which was generated in situ. In their Communication on page 12854 ff. Y. Wu, Y. Li, and co‐workers show that using this strategy, MoP NPs confined in porous carbon are obtained and exhibit higher hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity than bulk MoP.
