In the title complex, {[Cu(C12H10N2)2]BF4}n, each copper(I) centre is tetrahedrally coordinated by N atoms from four bridging trans-1-(2-pyridyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)ethylene (TPPE) ligands. The ligands bridge adjacent copper(I) centres to form one-dimensional folded chains. Adjacent uniform chains are further interlinked into a three-dimensional framework through weak C—HF interactions.
