How to replace special characters as "{" in xquery?

I'm trying to remove '}{' by '},{' in xquery:

fn:replace($text,'\\}\\{','\\},\\{')

and getting an error:

org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.regex.ParseException: Unexpected meta character

Seems simple:

replace($text, '\}\{', '},{')

If there can be whitespace between the curly braces you can use

replace($text, '\}\s*\{', '},{')
