Synthesis and structure of a new scorpionate-dithio carboxyl oxovanadium complex and an organic dithio carboxyl compound

Abstract

A new complex of oxovanadium(IV), V(2)O(2)[(HB(pz)(3))(2)(pyrro)(2) (1) and a dimer-dithio carboxyl compound (C(5)H(8)NS(2))(2) (2) have been synthesized by the reaction of VOSO(4).nH(2)O with NaHB(pz)(3) and pyrrolidine dithio carboxylic acid ammonium salt. They were characterized by element analysis, IR spectra, UV-vis spectra and X-ray diffraction. Structural analyses of 1 and 2 gave the following parameters: 1, triclinic, P-1, a=7.732(4)A, b=14.285(8)A, c=17.802(9)A, alpha=101.314(8) degrees , beta=92.682(9) degrees , gamma=92.228(9) degrees , V=1923.6(18)A(3), and Z=4; 2, monoclinic, C2/c, a=13.857(2)A, b=10.4213(18)A, c=9.436(2)A, beta=97.099(2), V=1352.1(4)A(3), and Z=4. In complex 1, vanadium atom adopts a distorted tetragonal bipyramid structure, which is typical for oxovanadium(IV) complexes. Compound 2 is a dimer-dithio carboxyl compound with S-S bond. In addition, thermal analysis was performed for analyzing the stabilization of the complexes.
