A. Neves et al., -N,2-KAPPA-N',1-2-KAPPA-O-2-BIS(DIOXOVANADIUM)(1+) IODIDE DIHYDRATE, [(VO2)(2)(TPHPN)]I.2H2O, Acta crystallographica. Section C, Crystal structure communications, 51, 1995, pp. 809-811
In the binuclear [(VO2)(2)(TPHPN)](+) cation of the title compound, [V
2O4(C27H29N6O)]I.2H(2)O, the two tridentate halves of the symmetrical
TPHPN- ligand are arranged so that the three donor N atoms are fac at
one pseudo-octahedral metal centre but mer at the other. The strong tr
ans influence of the oxo ligand is apparent from trends in the mu-V-O
and V-N bond lengths.
