The title compound, [Cu(C4H4NO3)2]n, exhibits a double-chain structure extending along [100]. The CuII atom, lying on an inversion center, is coordinated by two cyano N atoms from two 3-cyano-2-hydroxypropionate ligands and two hydroxy O atoms and two carboxylate O atom from two other two ligands in a distorted octahedral geometry. Intermolecular C-H...O and O-H...O hydrogen bonds connect the chains into a three-dimensional structure.
