    The title complex, [Cu{μ3-O2CC6H3(NO2)2-3,5}(μ-OH)] n , features zigzag chains in which successive pairs of Cu(II) atoms are connected by OH bridges and bidentate carboxyl-ate ligands, leading to six-membered Cu(O)(OCO)Cu rings. The zigzag chains are connected into a three-dimensional architecture by Cu-O(nitro) bonds. The coordination geometry of the Cu(II) atom is square-pyramidal, with the axial position occupied by the nitro O atom, which forms the longer Cu-O bond. Bifurcated hy-droxy-nitro O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds contribute to the stability of the crystal structure.

    The crystal and mol-ecular structures of the title CuII complex, isolated as a dihydrate, [Cu(C21H14N3O3)2]·2H2O, reveals a highly distorted coordination geometry inter-mediate between square-planar and tetra-hedral defined by an N2O2 donor set derived from two mono-anionic bidentate ligands. Furthermore, each six-membered chelate ring adopts an envelope conformation with the Cu atom being the flap. In the crystal, imidazolyl-amine-N-H⋯O(water), water-O-H⋯O(coordinated, nitro and water), phenyl-C-H⋯O(nitro) and π(imidazol-yl)-π(nitro-benzene) [inter-centroid distances = 3.7452 (14) and 3.6647 (13) Å] contacts link the components into a supra-molecular layer lying parallel to (101). The connections between layers forming a three-dimensional architecture are of the types nitro-benzene-C-H⋯O(nitro) and phenyl-C-H⋯π(phen-yl). The distorted coordination geometry for the CuII atom is highlighted in an analysis of the Hirshfeld surface calculated for the metal centre alone. The significance of the inter-molecular contacts is also revealed in a study of the calculated Hirshfeld surfaces; the dominant contacts in the crystal are H⋯H (41.0%), O⋯H/H⋯O (27.1%) and C⋯H/H⋯C (19.6%).
