The title complex, [Cu2(C22H16N4O4S2)2(NH3)4]·2H2O, is a centrosymmetric dimer. The two copper ions are bridged by two 4,5-dicyano-N,N′-bis-(p-tolyl-sulfonyl)-o-phenyl-ene-di-am-ine ligands; the Cu⋯Cu distance is 8.749 (1) Å. Each copper ion is in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry, defined by two N atoms from one ligand, two N atoms from two coordinated ammonia mol-ecules and one CN from the other ligand apically. The hydrogen-bonding network leads to a layered structure. © 2007 International Union of Crystallography. All rights reserved.
