In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(C(7)H(5)O(2))(2)(C(12)H(12)N(2))(H(2)O)], the Cu(II) ion is penta-coordinated in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry by two O atoms of two benzoate anions and two N atoms of a 5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine ligand occupying the basal plane, and a water O atom located at the apical site. In the crystal structure, O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into a supra-molecular structure. The crystal studied was a racemic twin, as suggested by th ...[more]
