Synthesis and Properties of #x3B2;-Diketone Complexes of Oxovanadium(V)

摘要

The synthesis and properties of some oxovanadium(V) chloride complexes of #x3B2;-diketones are reported including the preparation of the air-stable dibenzoylmethane derivative. The materials appear to be mild chlorinating reagents, decomposing in the process to stable oxovanadium(IV) products.
