In the title compound, [Cu(C2H3O2)2(C12H12N2)2]·H2O, the CuII atom exhibits a distorted octahedral coordination geometry, defined by two N atoms from one 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine ligand and four O atoms from two acetate ligands. In the crystal, O—HO hydrogen bonds are observed between the coordinated carboxylate O atoms and the solvent water molecule.
