The S N Ar reactions of disubstituted adamantanes bearing halophenol units and 3,6‐dichlorotetrazine afforded cyclophanes and their [2]catenanes. The [2]catenanes were composed of two macrocycles that were singly interlocked and orthogonally arranged. The cyclophanes were assembled to give a supramolecular organic framework in the crystalline state, which indicated permanent porosity and adsorption of green leaf volatiles in a single‐crystal to single‐crystal fashion.
