Abstract: The title complex, [Cu₂I₂(C₂₂H₂₀N₃OP)₂]·CH₂Cl₂, has a dimeric structure with a central Cu₂I₂ core formed about a twofold rotation axis. Each Cu^I centre is coordinated by an N atom at the 8-position of 1,8-naphthyridine to give an approximately planar triangular coordination geometry. Metal-metal interactions are also present, with a CuCu distance of 2.539 (2) Å. Complex molecules are connected into chains via intermolecular N-HO hydrogen bonds.
