Metal‐Organic Frameworks(MOFs) synthesized from ligands more than ten co‐ordinating sites may offer material applications due to their structural architecture. Herein, a synthesis of metal‐organic framework is reported from a ligand featuring 12‐aryl carboxylic acid groups appended on a hexaphenylbenzene and s‐block element potassium. The synthesized MOF was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis, infrared spectroscopy and X‐diffraction studies. The X‐ray crystal structure of MOF was shown to have a significant number of trapped and coordinated water molecules in its three‐dimensional framework.
