An attractive couple : (Pro 2 H + ) 2 (TCNQ .− ) 2 ⋅TCNQ (TCNQ=tetracyanoquinodimethane) contains an H‐bonding network that supports a layered structure, composed of alternating TCNQ anions and proline cations (see picture). The cation is formed by two zwitterionic proline amino acids supported by a proton bridge between the carboxylates, whereas the anionic component involves a neutral TCNQ molecule sandwiched between two TCNQ .− .
