Syntheses,Structures and Characterizations of Two New Vanadium (V) Complexes: [2‐MePyH] [ VvO2 (C14H9N2O3Br)] and [2‐EtPyH ] [ VvO2 (C14H9N2O3Br) ]

Two new oxovanadium(V) complexes, 2‐MePyH]V^vO₂(L)] (3) and2‐EtPyH]V^vO₂,(L)] (4) (salicylaldehyde 5‐bromo salicyloylhydrazone is abbreviated as H₂L; 2‐MePyH is protonated 2‐Mepyridine; 2‐EtPyH presents protonated 2‐Et‐pyridine) were obtained from a reaction of VOSO₄ and H₂L in acetonitrile‐methanol with small quantity of 2‐Me‐pyridine or 2‐Et‐pyridine, and characterized by X‐ray diffraction and spectroscopic methods. Crystal data: 2‐MePyH]VO₂(L)] (3), C₂₀H₁₇N₃O₅BrV, M_r = 510.2, monoclinic, P2₁/n, a = 0.7363(1) nm, 6 = 0.9514(1) nm, c = 2.8594(2) nm, β = 95.305(2)°, Z = 4 and V=1.9946(3) nm³, μ(Mo Kα) = 2.539 mm^?1; 2‐EtPyH]VO₂(L)] (4), C₂₁H₁₉N₃ O₃BrV, M_r = 524.2, triclinic, P1 , a = 0.8051(1) nm, b = 0.9413(1) nm, c = 1.4648(2) nm, α=99.1900(10)°, α = 99.4530(10)°, γ = 104.6670(10)°, Z = 2 and V= 1.0355(2) nm³, μ(Mo Kα) = 2.448 mm^?1, X‐Ray analyses revealed that the crystal structures of 3 and 4 have similar packing modes.
