The asymmetric unit consists of two CuI atoms, three 4,4กไ-bpy ligands in general positions and two halves of two centrosymmetric 4,4กไ-bpy ligands, two ClO4 anions and water molecule with a site-occupancy factor of 0.480 (17). The CuI atoms are in a distorted tetrahedral coordination environment and are bridged by 4,4กไ-bpy ligands, forming a diamondoid cationic polymeric framework that encloses two symmetry-independent channels along [100], which accommodate perchlorate anions and water molecules. %U http://scripts.iucr.org/cgi-bin/paper?S1600536812017266
