Crystals of the title adduct, C(10)H(8)N(2)·2C(3)H(3)NO(2), were obtained from a methanol/water solution of cyano-acetic acid and 4,4'-bipyridine at room temperature. In the crystal structure, cyano-acetic acid and centrosymmetric 4,4'-bipyridine mol-ecules are linked by O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds to form three-component supra-molecular adducts. The acidic H atom is almost midway between the O and N atoms of the cyano-acetic acid and bipyridine mol-ecules, with O-H and N-H distances of 1.19 (3) and 1. ...[more]
