Abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C₁₆H₁₃ClN₃O)(NCS)]·H₂O, the Cu^II atom adopts a distorted square-planar coordination with two N atoms and one O atom of the tridentate phenolate ligand, and one N atom of the thiocyanate anion. N-HS, O-HO and C-HO hydrogen bonds give rise to a two-dimensional network.
