In the title complex, [Cu(C(7)H(3)NO(4))(C(10)H(8)N(2)O(2))(H(2)O)]·H(2)O, the Cu(II) ion is in a slightly distorted square-pyramidal geometry. Two carboxyl-ate O atoms and one pyridine N atom from a pyridine-2,6-dicarboxyl-ate ligand chelate the Cu(II) ion, forming two stable five-membered metalla rings. One imidazole N atom from a 1-(4-carb-oxy-phen-yl)imidazole ligand and one water mol-ecule complete the five-coordination. O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds involving the coordinated water mol-ecules and ca ...[more]
