One step preparation of [(VO(μ-O)L)]2: A 2D supramolecular network directed by intermolecular interaction

New dioxovanadium(V) complex bearing tridentate product of single condensation of 1,2-propylenediamine and 2-hydroxyacetophenone has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and IR spectroscopy. The single-crystal structure of the complex shows that each vanadium(V) ion is six-coordinate through three bonds to oxo groups and through bonds to the tridentate Schiff base ligand. The supramolecular features in this complex are guided by hydrogen bonding and control of directional intermolecular interactions.
