Mono- and dinuclear vanadium complexes with the pentadentate schiff base 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(nicotinylhydrazone): Synthesis and structures

Аннотация

A reaction between VOSO₄, 2,6-diacetylpyridine, and nicotinohydrazide in a molar ratio of 1: 1: 2 afforded two complexes differing in both color and crystal shape as well as in chemical composition and molecular structure. The compositions and structures of the vanadium complexes were determined by IR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction (CIF files CCDC_nos. 1411235 (I) and 1411236 (II)). These complexes can be formulated as [V₂^II(H₂L)₂](NO₃)₄ ∙ H₂O (I) and [V^IV(=O)(H₂L)(SO₄)] ∙ 5H₂O (II), where H₂L is 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(nicotinylhydrazone). Complex I consists of centrosymmetric dinuclear complex cations [V₂(H₂L)₂]⁴⁺, NO₃^- anions, and crystal water molecules in a ratio of 1: 4: 1; complex II is built from molecular V(IV) complexes and crystal water molecules in a ratio of 1: 5. The coordination polyhedron of the metal atom in I is a tetragonal pyramid made up of the electron-donating atoms N₃O₂ of two ligands H₂L. The coordination polyhedron of the metal atom in II is a pentagonal bipyramid made up of the electron-donating atoms N₃O₂ of one neutral five-coordinate ligand H₂L and two O atoms coming from the oxo ligand and the SO₄^2- anion coordinated in a monodentate fashion.
