Abstract: In the title Cu^I compound, [Cu(C₆H₅N₅)(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂]BF₄, the Cu^I cation is N,N'-chelated by a 5-(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-tetrazole ligand and coordinated by two triphenylphosphane ligands in a distorted tetrahedral geometry. The tetrazole and pyridine rings are essentially coplanar [dihedral angle = 4.1 (3)°]. The tetrafluoridoborate anion links to the complex cation via an N-HF hydrogen bond.
