%X In the title compound, [Cu(NO3)2(C19H15N3O2)], the coordination geometry around the CuII ion can be described as distorted square-pyramidal, with two N atoms and one O atom from an (E)-4-hydroxy-N¡ä-[phenyl(pyridin-2-yl)methylene]benzohydrazide ligand and one nitrate O atom in the basal plane and one nitrate O atom at the apical site. The other two nitrate O atoms also bind to the Cu atom with long Cu¡ªO distances [2.607 (4) and 2.853 (5)  ]. The crystal packing is stabilized by intermolecular N¡ªH...O and O¡ªH...O hydrogen bonds.
