Abstract: The title compound, [V(C₁₆H₁₄N₂O₂)O], was synthesized by the reaction of vanadyl(IV) sulfate and N,N'-bis(salicylidene)ethylenediamine under hydrothermal conditions. The asymmetric unit contains two molecules. Each V^IV atom is coordinated in a square-pyramidal geometry by two N atoms and two O atoms from a ligand in the basal plane and by an oxide O atom in the apical position. Weak C-HO hydrogen bonds lead to a three-dimensional supramolecular structure.
