Mixed-ligand and binuclear complexes of oxovanadium(IV)

Summary Mixed ligand complexes of the type VOLA]ClO₄ where L=5-bromosalicylaldehyde (L) or 5-nitrosalicylaldehyde (L) and A=2, 2-dipyridyl (A) or 1, 10-phenanthroline (A) have been prepared. Treatment of the mononuclear complexes, VOLA]ClO₄, withp-phenylenediamine (ppd) orm-phenylenediamine (mpd) yielded homobinuclear VOLA-NC₆H₄N-LAVO](ClO₄)₂, complexes, which were characterised by elemental analyses, spectra, magnetic susceptibility and molar conductance measurements.
