Copper(II) tetrafluoroborate is the copper salt of tetrafluoroboric acid which involves copper in its +2 oxidation state bonded to two tetrafluoroborate anions (BF4−). Tetrafluoroborate adopts a tetrahedral shape similar to that of methane. The central boron atom has a formal charge of −1 because of its four covalent bonds. Its oxidation state is +3.
