Pr. Challen et al., One-dimensional chains in sodium tetraphenylphosphonium bis(2-mercapto-4-methylphenolato-O,S)oxo-vanadate(IV), ACT CRYST C, 56, 2000, pp. 310-311
The title compound, Na(C24H20P) [V(C7H6OS)(2)O], contains oxovanadium(IV) i
n a square-pyramidal coordination geometry with a basal plane consisting of
a cis-S2O2 donor group. The [VO(mmp)(2)](2-) (mmpH(2) = 2-mercapto-4-methy
lphenol) units are linked into infinite chains by the sodium ions.
