Two new oxovanadium(V) complexes, [VOL(mat)] (1) and [VOL(Et-mat)] (2) (mat = maltolate, Et-mat = ethyl maltolate), where L is the dianionic form of NЈ-(3-ethoxy-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-3-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzohydrazide (H 2 L), were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV/Vis, and 1 H NMR spectra. The structures of the compounds were further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The hydrazone ligand coordinates to the V atoms through the phenolate oxygen, imino nitrogen, and enolate oxygen.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
