Abstract: | In the polymeric title compound, {Cu(C10H7NO5)(H2O)]·H2O}n, the Cu atom adopts a square‐based pyramidal coordination involving a N,O,O′‐tridentate glycine dianionic ligand, a water O atom and an apical bridging carboxylate O atom from an adjacent ligand. The title compound also adopts a carboxylate‐bridged chain structure. The molecular chain propagates in a helical fashion along the b axis of the monoclinic unit cell. Neighbouring chains are linked together to form a three‐dimensional network via hydrogen‐bonding interactions between coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules and O atoms of the bridging carboxylate groups. |
