The title compound, (C10H10NO)2[Cu(C7H3NO4)2]·CH3OH·H2O was prepared by the reaction of copper(II) nitrate hexahydrate, 8-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline, and pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid in a 1:2:2 molar ratio in an aqueous solution. The geometry of the resulting CuN2O4 coordination can be described as distorted octahedral. In the crystal, there are several intermolecular O-H
O, N-H
O and C-H
O hydrogen bonds. An intramolecular N-H
O hydrogen bond occurs in one of the cations. Considerable
-
stacking interactions are also observed between the aromatic rings of the cations, with centroid-centroid distances of 3.4567 (13), 3.5342 (14), 3.6941 (14) and 3.4568 (13) Å. These non-covalent interactions connect the components, forming a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.
