title: Poly[[aqua-{μ4-2-[(carb-oxy-meth-yl)sulfan-yl]nicotinato-κ(4) O:O':O'':O'''}copper(II)] trihydrate].
abstract: In the polymeric title complex, {[Cu(C8H5NO4S)(H2O)]·3H2O} n , the Cu(II) cation is coordinated by one water mol-ecule and four carboxyl-ate O atoms from four 2-[(carb-oxy-meth-yl)sulfan-yl]nicotinate anions in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. The 2-[(carb-oxy-meth-yl)sulfan-yl]nicotinate anion bridges four Cu(II) cations, forming a two-dimensional polymeric complex parallel to the bc plane. In the crystal, O-H⋯O, O-H⋯N and O-H⋯S hydrogen bonds link the complex mol-ecules and lattice water mol-ecules into a three-dimensional supra-molecular architecture.
