Oxovanadium(IV) polymer complexes of formulation {[(VO)L](2)}(n) (1) and [(VO)LB](n) (2-4), where H2L is tridentate and dianionic ligand (allylazorhodanine) and B is planar heterocyclic and aliphatic base have been prepared and characterized by elemental analyses. IR, H-1 NMR, electronic spin resonance spectra, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductance and thermal studies. The molecular structure shows the presence of a vanadyl group in six-coordinate VNO3/VN3O3 coordination geometry. The N,N-donor heterocyclic and aliphatic bas displays a chelating mode of binding with an N-donor site trans to the vanadyl oxo-group. In all polymeric complexes (1-4) the ligand coordinates through oxygen of phenolic/enolic and azodye nitrogen. The molar conductivity data show them to be non-electrolytes. All the polymer complexes are ESR active due to the presence of an unpaired electron. The calculated bonding parameters indicate that in-plane sigma bonding is more covalent than in-plane pi bonding. From the electronic, magnetic and ESR spectral data suggest that all the oxovanadium(IV) polymer complexes have distorted octahedral geometry. The thermal decomposition process of the polymeric complexes involves three decomposition steps. (C) 2010 Elsevier BM. All rights reserved.
