Aqua[4-(hydroxyiminomethyl)pyridine-κN¹](pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylato-κ³O²,N,O⁶)copper(II)

Abstract

In the title compound, [Cu(C7H3NO4)(C6H6N2O)(H2O)], the coordination geometry of the CuII atom can be described as distorted square pyramidal. The basal plane is defined by one N atom and two O atoms from the deprotonated pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl­ate ligand, and a pyridyl N atom from the 4-pyridyl aldoxime ligand. The apical position is occupied by a water mol­ecule. O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds lead to the formation of a two-dimensional network.
