A Cu（II） complex of tetra（3,5-diphenyl pyrazole） [Cu（C15H12N2）2Cl2]2 （1） was synthesized, and its structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and further characterized by elemental analysis, NMR and IR. 1 belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 13.3780（5）, b = 15.1392（6）, c = 15.5923（6） , β = 124.522（2）°, Z = 2 and V = 2601.86（17） 3. In 1, each Cu2＋ ion is coordinated with two N atoms from two tetra（3,5-diphenyl pyrazole） ligands and three Cl- anions to give a distorted square-pyramidal geometry, which is further linked through edge-sharing bridging by Cl- anions to form a centrosymmetric dinuclear structure.
