Encapsulating metastable nanoparticles with high catalytic activity into metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) is still a great challenge. In their Communication on page 6834 ff., B. Li, J.‐G. Ma, and P. Cheng develop a template‐protection‐sacrifice method to encapsulate metastable Cu 2 O nanoparticles into MOFs. SiO 2 serves as a sacrificial template for forming the yolk–shell structure, as a protective shell for Cu 2 O nanocubes, and as a place holder in the porous composite material.
