✦ Synopsis

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(C 7 H 3 -NO 4 )(NH 3 ) 2 ], the Cu atom is coordinated in a squarepyramidal geometry by a pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylate ligand acting in an N,O,O 0 -tridentate chelating mode, and by two N atoms from two ammine ligands. A further long Cu-O bond involving a symmetry-realated molecule generates chains of molecules in the a-axis direction.
