In the title complex, [Cu(C16H15NO3)(C10H8N2)]·3H2O, the CuII atom is five coordinated by O,N,O′-donor atoms of the Schiff base ligand and by two N atoms of the 2,2′-bipyridine ligand in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. In the crystal, molecules are linked into a two-dimensional network parallel to (011) by O—HO hydrogen bonds.

In the title salt, C6H9N2+·NO3−, the 2-amino-5-methylpyridinium cation and the nitrate anion are cyclically linked through pyridinium and amine N—HO hydrogen bonds [graph set R43(12)]. These units are extended into a zigzag chain structure lying parallel to the a axis, through a second cyclic R22(8) association involving amine N—HO and aromatic C—HO hydrogen bonds to nitrate O-atom acceptors.
