Abstract: In the crystal structure of the title complex, [Cu₂(C₈H₇O₂)₄(C₃H₇NO)₂], two independent dinuclear Cu^II complex molecules, bridged by phenylacetate anions, are located on inversion centres. The CuCu separations of 2.6414 (8) and 2.6261 (8) Å suggest no bonding between the Cu atoms. The Cu^II ions exist in a square-pyramidal coordination environment, defined by one N,N-dimethylformamide and four phenylacetate O atoms.
