Intriguing properties and functions are expected to implant into metal–organic layers (MOLs) to achieve tailored pore environments and multiple functionalities owing to the synergies among multiple components. Herein, we demonstrate a facile one‐pot synthetic strategy to incorporate multiple functionalities into stable zirconium MOLs via secondary ligand pillaring. Through the combination of Zr 6 ‐BTB (BTB=benzene‐1,3,5‐tribenzoate) layers and diverse secondary ligands (including ditopic and tetratopic linkers), 31 MOFs with multi‐functionalities were systematically prepared. Notably, a metal–phthalocyanine fragment was successfully incorporated into this Zr‐MOL system, giving rise to an ideal platform for the selective oxidation of anthracene. The organic functionalization of two‐dimensional MOLs can generate tunable porous structures and environments, which may facilitate the excellent catalytic performance of as‐synthesized materials.
