Abstract

A new dinuclear oxovanadium(V) complex, [VO2(EMP)]2·BPY, where EMP is the mono-anionic form of 2-{[2-(2-hydroxyethylamino)ethylimino]methyl}-6-methylphenol (HEMP), and BPY is 4,4-bipyridine, has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR spectra, and single-crystal X-ray determination. The crystal of the complex is triclinic: space group P, a = 7.473(2) Å, b = 9.193(2) Å, c = 13.525(2) Å, α = 82.726(2)°, β = 83.253(2)°, γ = 69.861(2)°, V = 862.6(3) Å3, Z = 1. The asymmetric unit of the compound contains a dinuclear oxovanadium complex molecule and a 4,4-bipyridine molecule. The V···V distance is 3.153(1) Å. The V atoms in the complex are in octahedral coordination. The antibacterial activity of the compound against various bacteria was assayed.
