Abstract
The first xanthates of vanadium(1V) to be isolated have been prepared in aqueous media from op2VClz and NaS2COR (R = CH3, C2H5, i-C3H7, C4H9, and C6H11). The purple crystalline solids are monomeric 1 : 1 electrolytes in solution and believed to be of the form (see diagram in text) Room temperature magnetic moments are c.1.65 B.M. and the magnetic susceptibility follows the Curie law. Infrared, electronic, and e.s.r. spectra are reported.
