✦ Synopsis
In the title complex, [Cu(C~8~H~5~O~3~)(NO~3~)(C~12~H~8~N~2~)(H~2~O)], the Cu^II^ atom adopts a distorted square-pyramidal coordination geometry with an O atom of the nitrate group occupying the apex of the pyramid. The complex molecules are linked into ribbons along the a axis via hydrogen bonding between the water molecule and the nitro anion. π–π stacking interactions between the 4-formylbenzoate and phenanthroline ligands assemble two ribbons into a larger one-dimensional structure. The centroid-to-centroid distances between the overlapping six-membered rings are 3.634 (3) and 3.722 (3) Å.
