A binuclear vanadium oxyfluoride: di--oxido-bis[fluoridooxido(1,10-phenanthroline)vanadium(V)]

P. DeBurgomaster and J. Zubieta

Abstract: The title compound, [V₂F₂O₄(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂], is a centrosymmetric binuclear vanadium(V) species with the metal ions in a distorted octahedral environment. The symmetry-equivalent V^V atoms exhibit coordination geometries defined by cis-terminal fluoride and oxide groups, unsymmetrically bridging oxide groups and the N-atom donors of the phenanthroline ligands. The crystal packing is stabilized by weak intermolecular C-HO and C-HF hydrogen bonds.
