Abstract: In the title compound, [Cu(C₁₅H₁₁N₃)₂](ClO₄)₂·0.5H₂O, the 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (terpy) ligand coordinates to the Cu^II ion as a terdentate chelating ligand, giving a complex cation with compressed octahedral geometry. The [Cu(terpy)₂]²⁺ cations have crystallographically imposed C₂ symmetry.
