The structure of the centrosymmetric title complex, [Cu(C(5)H(9)O(2))(2)(C(6)H(7)NO)(2)], has the Cu(II) atom on a centre of inversion. The Cu(II) atom is six-coordinate with a distorted octa-hedral geometry, defined by the N and O atoms of the chelating 2-(2-hydroxymethyl)pyridine ligands and two carboxyl-ate O atoms from two monodentate pivalate ions. The crystal packing is stabilized by inter-molecular C-H⋯O and intra-molecular O-H⋯O hydrogen-bond inter-actions. ...[more]
