Di-μ-hydroxido-κ(4) O:O-di-μ-perchlorato-κ(4) O:O′-bis­[(2,2′-bi­pyridine-κ(2) N,N′)copper(II)]

In the title binuclear copper(II) complex, [Cu(2)(ClO(4))(2)(OH)(2)(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)], the Cu(II) ion is coordinated in the form of a Jahn–Teller distorted octahedron by two bi­pyridine N atoms, two perchlorate O atoms and two hydroxide O atoms, and displays a distorted octa­hedral geometry. The mol­ecule belongs to the symmetry point group C (2h). The Cu(II) ion is located on a twofold rotation axis and the hydroxide and perchlorate ligands are located on a mirror plane. Within the dinuclear mol­ecule, the Cu⋯Cu separation is 2.8614 (7) Å. The crystal structure exhibits O—H⋯O, C—H⋯O and π–π [centroid–centroid distance = 3.5374 (13) Å] inter­actions.
