Trapped and released : Ammonia borane (AB) incorporated within the one‐dimensional hexagonal nanopores of magnesium‐metal–organic‐framework‐74 shows clean and exceptionally improved H 2 ‐release properties when compared to pristine AB (see figure; C gray, O red, Mg green, H white, N blue, B orange). In this system, the kinetics and the temperature of AB dehydrogenation can be easily tuned.
