Abstract: The title compound, [Cu(C₇H₄BrO₂)(C₁₀H₈N₂)]ClO₄, has been prepared by the reaction of 5-bromosalicylaldehyde and 2,2'-bipyridine with Cu{ClO₄)·6H₂O. The two ligands coordinate the central Cu atom through two N [Cu-N = 1.981 (6) and 1.984 (7) Å] and two O [Cu-O = 1.888 (5) and 1.949 (6) Å] atoms. The coordination is completed by a perchlorate O atom, with a Cu-O distance of 2.533 (12) Å. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak CuO interactions and van der Waals forces.
