A new class of boron‐graphdiyne (BGDY) has been prepared by a bottom‐up synthetic strategy. In their Communication on page 3968 ff., C. Huang, Y. Li, and co‐workers show BGDY has a unique two‐dimensional structure with highly‐decorated molecular pores. The sp‐hybridized carbon skeleton and evenly distributed boron heteroatoms can stabilize metal atoms intercalated in the BGDY framework. Thus, BGDY shows promising an electrochemical performance in sodium‐ion half cells.
