Cu(NO3)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmn2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cu2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.40 Å. There are three inequivalent N5+ sites. In the first N5+ site, N5+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.23 Å) and two longer (1.29 Å) N–O bond length. In the second N5+ site, N5+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of N–O bond distances ranging from 1.24–1.29 Å. In the third N5+ site, N5+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.23 Å) and two longer (1.29 Å) N–O bond length. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu2+ and one N5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Cu2+ and one N5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu2+ and one N5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu2+ and one N5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Cu2+ and one N5+ atom.
