In the title compound, [Cu(C6H5N2O)Cl(C6H6N2O)], the Cu atom is coordinated by one neutral and one deprotonated pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde oxime (pco) ligand, resulting in the formation of two five-membered CuN2C2 rings. Together with the additional coordinating chloride anion, the coordination polyhedron of copper is best described as a distorted square-pyramid, the distortion parameter being 0.288. The two organic ligands are linked by an intramolecular O-H...O hydrogen bond.
