Abstract: In the title complex {[Cu(ClO₄)(C₁₂H₈N₂)(CH₃CN)₂]ClO₄}_n, the Cu cations have an N₄O₂ octahedral coordination geometry, being bridged by the perchlorate, chelated by the phenanthroline heterocycles and also coordinated by two acetonitrile ligands. One perchlorate anion acts both as a bridging bis-monodentate ligand between a metal cation and its symmetry equivalents, forming an infinite one-dimensional chain in the b-axis direction, and as a counter-ion to balance the charge.
