The two-dimensional structure of poly[[diperchloratocopper(II)]-bis­[μ₂-1,3-bis­(4-pyrid­yl)propane]]

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(ClO₄)₂(C₁₃H₁₄N₂)₂]_n, there are two independent Cu^II ions, one of which occupies a crystallographic inversion center. The 1,3-bis­(4-pyrid­yl)propane ligands bridge the Cu^II ions to form two independent two-dimensional sheets. In addition, two terminal perchlorate anions are coordinated to each Cu^II ion, resulting in distorted octa­hedral coordination around each Cu^II ion. The equatorial Cu—N bonds are in the range 2.014 (4)–2.031 (4) Å, while the long axial Cu—O distances range from 2.434 (3) to 2.548 (3) Å.
