Tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato-²O,N)oxoniobium(V) dichloromethane disolvate

M. M. Amini, M. Mirzaee, F. Yeganeh and S. W. Ng

Abstract: The Nb^V atom in [NbO(C₉H₆NO)₃]·2CH₂Cl₂ is chelated by the 8-hydroxyquinolinato ligand and it exists in a pentagonal bipyramidal geometry. The Nb and oxo O atoms, and one of the 8-hydroxyquinolinate groups lie on a crystallographic mirror plane. The structural features of the molecule in the dichloromethane solvate are almost identical to those in the chloroform solvate reported by García-Granda et al. [Acta Cryst. (1990). C46, 753-755].
