The title compound, [Cu(C7H5O2)2(C6H6N2O)2], belongs to the family of neutral copper(II) monomeric carboxylato complexes. The copper ion lies on a twofold axis and the two bidentate benzoate groups form the equatorial plane. The Cu-O distances are 2.180 (3) and 2.209 (3) Å. The two nicotinamide moieties are bonded in axial positions [Cu-N 2.007 (3) Å], thus completing the distorted octahedral coordination around CuII. The amide groups of the two trans nicotinamide molecules are cis with respect to each other.
