Abstract: The two halves of the title compound, [Cu(C₂H₂BrO₂)₂(C₁₂H₈N₂)], are related by twofold symmetry along the b axis through the central Cu^II ion. The Cu^II ion is coordinated by two symmetry-related N atoms from the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand and four O atoms from two 2-bromoacetate ligands, showing a distorted octahedral geometry. Weak intermolecular C-HO interactions link neighbouring molecules.
