Synthesis and Crystal Structures of Benzohydroxamate-Coordinated Vanadium(V) Oxo Complexes with Aroylhydrazone
Abstract:
Reaction of [VO(acac)(2)] (where acac = acetylacetonate), benzohydroxamic acid (Hbha), and two similar aroylhydrazone ligands in methanol produced two benzohydroxamate-coordinated mononuclear vanadium(V) oxo complexes with general formula [VOL(bha)], where L = L(1) = N'-(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-fluorobenzohydrazide (H(2)L(1)), and L = L(2) = N'-(3-bromo-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-fluorobenzohydrazide (H(2)L(2)). Crystal and molecular structures of the complexes were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction method. All of the investigated compounds were further characterized by elemental analysis, and FT-IR and UV-Vis spectra. Single crystal X-ray structural studies indicate that the benzohydrazone ligands coordinate to the VOcores through phenolate O, imino N, and enolate O atoms, and the benzohydroxamate ligands coordinate to the VO cores through deprotonated hydroxyl O and carbonyl O atoms. The V atoms in both complexes are in octahedral coordination. Thermal stability of the complexes was studied.

Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can...

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
CFT focuses on...
