Synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of cationic mononuclear oxovanadium(IV) complexes with tetradentate Schiff bases as ligands

摘要

New tetradentate Schiff-base oxovanadium(IV) complexes [VOL']SO4 (where L' = tetradentate ligands derived from 2,4-dihydroxy 5-acetyl acetophenone and substituted diamines) were prepared and characterized by physico-chemical techniques. All the complexes are monomeric in nature and a square-pyramidal geometry is proposed. Various ligand-field and molecular-orbital parameters have been calculated. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
