A uranyl‐urea‐bearing dipropionate hybrid compound, in which the two acid groups are coordinated in different modes and the urea group serves as both a coordination functionality and a supramolecular synthon, is prepared. The effect of hydrogen‐bonding interactions on the luminescence properties of the compound was explored by lifetime measurements. Thermogravimetric analyses were performed under a nitrogen atmosphere and in air. The “uranophilicity” of this urea‐bearing ligand was examined by competition experiments in alkaline spring water.
