In the title molecule, [V(C15H10I2N2O2)(CH3O)O(CH3OH)], the VV atom is coordinated by one N and two O atoms from an N′-(3,5-diiodo-2-oxidobenzylidene-κO)-4-methylbenzohydrazidate (L) ligand, one oxide O atom, one methanolate [V—O = 1.761 (3) Å] and one methanol [V—O = 2.383 (4) Å] O atom in a distorted octahedral geometry. In the L ligand, the two benzene rings are nearly parallel, forming a dihedral angle of 2.0 (1)°. In the crystal, intermolecular O—H⋯N hydrogen bonds link pairs of molecules into centrosymmetric dimers which exhibit π–π interactions between the aromatic rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.677 (5) Å].

Equimolar quantities (0.1 mmol each) of 3,5-diiodosalicylaldehyde, 4-methylbenzohydrazide, and VOSO4 were mixed and stirred in methanol for 30 min at reflux. After keeping the filtrate in air for a few days, red block crystals were formed.
Atom H4 was located in a difference Fourier map and refined with O—H distance restrained to 0.85 (4) Å, and Uiso(H) = 2Ueq(O). Other H atoms were placed in calculated positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H distances in the range 0.93–0.96 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) and 1.5Ueq(methyl C).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Considerable attention has been focused on the synthesis, structures, and biological properties of oxovanadium complexes (Chohan et al., 2010; Chohan & Sumrra, 2010; Sharma et al., 2010; Tian et al., 2010). The present paper reports the crystal structure of the title new oxovanadium complex (I).
In (I) (Fig. 1), [OVL(OCH3)(CH3OH)] (H2L = 3,5-diiodosalicylaldehide (4-methylbenzoyl)hydrazonic acid), the V center is coordinated by one N and two O atoms from L, one oxo O atom, and two O atoms from the methoxy [V—O 1.761 (3) Å] and methanol [V—O 2.383 (4) Å] ligands, respectively, in a distorted octahedral geometry. In the ligand L, two benzene rings are nearly parallel forming a dihedral angle of 2.0 (1)°. The deviation of the V atom from the least-squares plane defined by the three donor atoms of the hydrazone ligand and the methoxy O atom towards the oxo O atom is 0.311 (2) Å. The bond lengths and bond angles related to the V atom are normal and correspond to those observed in the related compounds (Wang, 2011; Rajak et al., 2000; Mondal et al., 2009).
In the crystal structure (Fig. 2), intermolecular O—H···N hydrogen bonds (Table 1) link two molecules into centrosymmetric dimer which exhibits π-π interaction between the aromatic rings [centroid-to-centroid distance of 3.677 (5) Å].
