5,5'-(2-Hydroxy-1,3-propandiyldiamino)bis(1-phenyl-1,3-hexanedionato-O,O')oxovanadium(IV), [VO(C₂₇H₂₈N₂O₅)]

Schiff-base ligands derived from triketones form stable complexes with VO. In the mononuclear vanadyl complex of 5,5'-(2-hydroxy1,3-propandiyldiamino)bis(1-phenyl-1,3-hexanedione), vanadium is five-coordinate, equatorially bonded to four carbonyl O atoms in a nearly square-planar arrangement and axially to one other O atom. N atoms are not involved in complex formation. The hydroxy group is disordered.
