A Zn(II)‐based two‐dimensional (2D) pillar bilayer metal‐organic framework (MOF) [{Zn(aip)(4,4′‐bpy) 0.5 (MeOH)}⋅(H 2 O)] n ( 1 ), (H 2 aip=5‐aminoisophthalic acid and 4,4′‐bpy=4, 4′‐bipyridine) has been designed and structurally characterized by single crystal X‐ray diffraction (SCXRD) technique. Compound 1 exhibits considerable antibacterial activity upon Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) and Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ), for which IC 50 values have been obtained as 86.26±1.2 μg/ml and 95.96 ± 2.04 μg/ml respectively. Thus the fabricated MOF has the significant antibacterial property against pathogenic bacterial strains with significantly low IC 50 values. Therefore, the compound 1 deserves to be a Bio‐MOF in the world of hybrid materials.
