| Abstract: | l‐Alanyl‐glutamine dipeptide assembles with CuII ions to give the 2D coordination framework Cu2(C8H13N3O4)2·2H2O]n ( 1 ) in which amino acid residues result in specific void space. In presence of 4,4′‐bipyridine, framework 1 is turned into a binuclear complex Cu2(C8H13N3O4)2(H2O)2(C10H8N2)·8H2O] ( 2 ), which is further linked into a 2D hydrogen‐bonded layer in which amino acid residues induce a hydrogen‐bonded water cluster containing eight water molecules in the void space. |
