Abstract

The title complex was prepared from the reaction of [V2(μ-Cl)3(thf)3]2[Zn2Cl6] with N,N,NN′-tetraethylethane-1,2-diamine (teeda) in refluxing thf and its crystal structure exhibits two triangulo-[V3(μ-Cl)3(μ-Cl)(μ 3-OH)(thf)2(teeda)]+ cations bridged by two chlorides. The molecular structure (monoclinic, space group P2 1/n, Z = 2, a = 11.8005(7) Å, b = 18.7492(14) Å, c= 15.6253(9) Å, β = 103.600(4) shows each vanadium site in a distorted octahedral geometry. V1 and V2 have two thf molecules bounded in cis configuration, and V3 completes the hexa-coordination with the diamine teeda. Main bond distances are 2.5149(12) Å for V(1)-μ-Cl(1), 2.062(3) Å for V(1)-μ 3-O(3), 2.5554(12) Å for V(1)-μ 3-Cl(4), 2.140(3) Å for V(1)–O(1)(thf), 2.243(4) Å for V(3)–N(1)(teeda), and 3.0437(9) for V(1)···V(2).
