Abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C₁₇H₁₁NO₂)(C₅H₅N)(H₂O)], the anionic naphthalen-2-olate group chelates to the Cu atom through its O, O' and N atoms, and the N atom of the heterocycle completes the square-planar coordination of the Cu atom. The apical site of the square-pyramidal environment is occupied by the water ligand. Adjacent molecules are linked by hydrogen bonds into a linear chain running along the b axis of the monoclinic unit cell.
