[1-(Diphenylphosphino)-2-(diphenylphosphinoyl)ethane-κ P1]iodido(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2 N, N′)copper(I) dichloromethane solvate.

In the structure of the title complex, [CuI(C12H8N2){Ph2PCH2CH2P(O)Ph2}]·CH2Cl2, the coordination polyhedron with copper as the central atom has a distorted tetrahedral geometry formed by two N atoms from 1,10-phenanthroline, one iodide anion and one P atom from 1-(diphenylphosphino)-2-(diphenylphosphinoyl)ethane.
