A mixture of vanadium(IV) sulfate (1 mmol) and N,N'-bis(2-hydroxybenzyl)-1,3-propanediamine (1 mmol) in 20 ml me thanol was refluxed for two hours. The above solution was filtered and the filtrate was allowed to evaporate naturally at room temperature. Two days later, blue blocks of (I) were obtained with a yield of 16%. Anal. calc. for C40H46V2N6O8: C 56.56, H 5.42, N 6.60%; found: C 56.52, H 5.44, N 6.51%.
All H atoms were placed in calculated positions with C—H = 0.93–0.96Å and refined as riding with Uiso(H) = 1.2 or 1.5 times Ueq(C).
Schiff base ligands have been studied for a long time due to their easy synthesis and versatile complexing properties. They play an important role in the development of coordination chemistry as well as inorganic biochemistry, catalysis, optical materials etc. (Garnovskii et al., 1993; Huang et al., 2002). The richness and importance of vanadate chemistry (Gresser & Tracey, 1986; Posner et al., 1994) have aroused our particular interest in designing new vanadium complexes with ONNO-donor ligands. In this paper, we report the structure of the title compound, (I).
As shown in Fig. 1, each V atom is chelated by a Schiff base ligand via two N and two O atoms. The two octahedrally coordinated V atoms are linked by two bridging oxide ligands to give a centrosymmetric dimer. The V—N and V—O bond lengths are in the ranges 2.028 (2)–2.078 (2) and 1.8187 (18)–1.9364 (19) %A, respectively.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Schiff base ligands have been studied for a long time due to their easy synthesis and versatile complexing properties. They play an important role in the development of coordination chemistry as well as inorganic biochemistry, catalysis, optical materials etc. (Garnovskii et al., 1993; Huang et al., 2002). The richness and importance of vanadate chemistry (Gresser & Tracey, 1986; Posner et al., 1994) have aroused our particular interest in designing new vanadium complexes with ONNO-donor ligands. In this paper, we report the structure of the title compound, (I).
As shown in Fig. 1, each V atom is chelated by a Schiff base ligand via two N and two O atoms. The two octahedrally coordinated V atoms are linked by two bridging oxide ligands to give a centrosymmetric dimer. The V—N and V—O bond lengths are in the ranges 2.028 (2)–2.078 (2) and 1.8187 (18)–1.9364 (19) %A, respectively.
