Abstract

In the title dinuclear compound, [V(2)(C(15)H(17)N(2)O)(2)O(4)], each V(V) atom is six-coordinated by one oxide group, and by two N and one O atom of the tridentate Schiff base ligand, and bridged by two additional oxide O atoms, resulting in a centrosymmetric dimer. The metal centre has a distorted octa-hedral coordination with the monoanionic Schiff base ligand occupying one equatorial and two axial coordination positions. The separation between V atoms is 3.214 (3) Å. In the crystal structure, there are N-H⋯O, C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π hydrogen bonds, and π-π inter-actions.
