Abstract
Oxovanadium(IV) complexes, [VO(J-R)], where H2J-R is a Jäger-type ligand with bridging group R (ethylene o-phenylene or 4-methyl-o-phenylene), have been synthesized. Condensations of the complexes with diamines give products but as sticky, insoluble materials. An alternative method has been used to obtain cyclic oxovanadium(IV) complexes.
