Synthesis, Structure, and Biological Activity of a New Insulinomimetic Peroxovanadium Compound: Bisperoxovanadium Imidazole Monoanion

摘要

In summary, bisperoxovanadium imidazole (1) is a new vanadium complex that has interesting insulinomimetic proper- ties; it is as good or better than previously reported compounds. In addition, 1 is of interest for its unusual structure since there has only been one previous report of a peroxocandium compound containing six-coordinate vanadioum and no previous reports of a vanadium(V) imidazole complex without other stabilizing organic ligands.
