A novel anionic di-oxido vanadium(V) Schiff base complex: Synthesis, spectral characterization, X ray crystal structure, catalytic activity for the preparation of tetrahydro-4H-chromene derivatives and antibacterial properties

In this work, a tridentate ONO Schiff base ligand,1-[(((2-hydroxyphenyl)imino)methyl)]naphthalen-2-ol [H2L] and its di-oxido vanadium(V) complex [(VO2(L)](NHET3) have been synthesized and fully characterized using elemental analysis, molar conductivity and FT-IR, UV–Vis, and 1HNMR spectroscopies. Single crystal X-ray diffraction was also used to accomplish the crystal structure of di-oxido vanadium(V) complex. The catalytic activity of the...
