Abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C₆H₃BrNO₂)₂(H₂O)], the Cu atom adopts a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal coordination arising from two N,O-bidentate ligands and a water molecule, with one N atom in an axial site and the other in an equatorial site. The dihedral angle between the pyridine ring planes is 67.6 (2)°. In the crystal, O-HO hydrogen bonds result in chains propagating in [100].
