Abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C₁₄H₉O₃)₂(C₅H₅NO)₂]·2CH₃OH, the Cu atom (site symmetry ) is chelated by two 9-hydroxyfluorene-9-carboxylate ligands. Two N-bound 3-hydroxypyridine molecules, which are disordered over two adjacent positions, complete the coordination of the distorted CuO₄N₂ octahedron. Various O-HO hydrogen bonds link the metal-bearing unit and the methanol solvent molecules into a linear chain structure.
