Hexahydroxytriphenylene (HHTP) is any of a set of organic compounds consisting of a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon core—triphenylene—with six hydroxy group substituents attached to the rings. These compounds have found use as a component of two-dimensional polymers. The first covalent organic framework used this chemical as a monomer building block.{{cite journal |last1= Côté |first1= Adrien P. |last2= Benin |first2= Annabelle I. |last3= Ockwig |first3= Nathan W. |last4= O'Keeffe |first4= Michael |last5= Matzger |first5= Adam J. |last6= Yaghi |first6= Omar M. |title= Porous, Crystalline, Covalent Organic Frameworks |journal= Science |year= 2005 |volume= 310 |issue= 5751 |pages= 1166–1170 |doi= 10.1126/science.1120411 |bibcode= 2005Sci...310.1166C |pmid= 16293756 |s2cid= 35798005 }} It can be used for self-assembling metal–organic frameworks.{{Cite journal |title= Self-Assembly at All Scales |journal= Science |date= 2002-03-29 |pmid= 11923529 |pages= 2418–2421 |volume= 295 |issue= 5564 |doi= 10.1126/science.1070821 |first1= George M. |last1= Whitesides |authorlink1= George M.
