In the monomeric title complex, [Cu(C(6)H(3)BrNO(2))(NO(3))(H(2)O)(2)], the Cu(II) ion is coordinated by a bidentate 6-bromo-picolinate ion, one nitrate ion and two water mol-ecules in a geometry inter-mediate between five- and six-coordinate. Conventional O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the complex mol-ecules, forming layers parallel to the ab plane.
