Abstract: In the title polymeric complex, [CuCl₂(C₇H₁₄N₄)]_n, the Cu coordination polyhedron adopts the form of a distorted square pyramid. Basal sites of the pyramid are occupied by three Cl atoms [Cu-Cl = 2.2519  (7), 2.2842  (7) and 2.3114  (7)  Å] and by the N atom of the 2-hexyl-2H-tetrazole ligand [Cu-N = 2.0068  (17)  Å]. A Cl atom lies in the apical position, 2.6091  (6)  Å from the Cu atom. Neighbouring polyhedra are linked by sharing their edges with Cl atoms to form polymeric chains running along the a axis. The CH₃CH₂- group at the end of the hexyl chain is positionally disordered.
