2O1,O2)copper(II)Abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C6H5O5)2(H2O)2], the CuII atom, located on an inversion center, is coordinated by four O atoms from two malate ligands forming the equatorial plane and two water molecules in axial positions, resulting in an elongated octahedral geometry. The structure of this compound has been reported previously [Polyanskaya et al. (1982). Zh. Strukt. Khim. 23, 117-118], but the quality of the refinement has been improved. The packing is governed by intermolecular O-H
O hydrogen bonds, forming an intricate three-dimensional network.
