The title complex, [mu]-chloro-bis[(1R*,4R*)-5,5,7,13,15,15-hexamethyl-1,4,8,12-tetraaza cyclopentadeca-7,12-diene-N1,N4,N8,N12)(perchlorato-O)copper(II)] perchlorate, [Cu2Cl(ClO4)2(C17H34N4)2](ClO4), has a chloride-bridged centrosymmetric confacial dinuclear cation. Each copper(II) ion is in a tetrahedrally twisted (±0.30 Å) planar coordination composed of the four N atoms of the macrocyclic ligand [mean Cu-Namine 2.02 (1) and Cu-Nimine 1.99 (1) Å], with weak tetragonal chloride [Cu-Cl 2.83 (1) Å] and perchlorate oxygen [Cu-O 2.94 (1) Å] interactions. The Cu atom is displaced by 0.09 Å from the best N4 plane towards the chloride ion.
