Abstract
The Na and NH4 salts of the [VOF(C2O4)2]3--ion have been prepared. The crystal structure of the former has been determined from X-ray diffractometer data. The crystals are triclinic, space group P with Z = 2. The structure was solved by `direct methods' and refined to R 0.050 for 1749 reflections. In the anion, vanadium(IV) is octahedrally coordinated by a terminal oxygen atom, a fluorine atom in cis-position to the former, and two bidentate oxalate ligands. The terminal V—O-bond exhibits a strong ‘trans’ effect.
