Oxovanadium complexes with H(2)bzimpy (2,6-bis[benzimidazol-2'-yl]pyridine) and Me(2)bzimpy (2,6-bis[N'-methylbenzimidazol-2'-yl]pyridine), and H(3)ntb (tris(benzimidazol-2'-yl-methyl]amine) and Me(3)ntb (tris[N'-methylbenzimidazol-2'-yl-methyl]amine) have been synthesized. Dioxovanadium(V) and oxovanadium(IV) complexes prepared from H(2)bzimpy and Me(2)bzimpy are [(VO2)-O-V(Hbzjmpy)].1.25H(2)O (1), [(VO2)-O-V(Me(2)bzimpy)](ClO4).H2O (3), [(VO)-O-IV(H(2)bzimpy)(H2O)(2)](CF3SO3)(2).2H(2)O (2), and [(VO)-O-IV(Me(2)bzimpy)(H2O)(2)](CF3SO3)(2) (4). H(3)ntb and Me(3)ntb afforded oxovanadium(IV) complexes, [(VO)-O-IV(Hntb)].2MeOH (5), [(VO)-O-IV(H(3)ntb)Cl]Cl.H2O (7), [(VO)-O-IV(Me(3)ntb)SO4].H2O (9), [(VO)-O-IV(Me(3)ntb)Cl]Cl.H2O (10), and mixed-valence complexes, [(H(3)ntb)(VO)-O-IV(mu-O)(VO)-O-V(H(3)ntb)](CF3SO3)(3).2H(2)O (8) and [(Me(3)ntb)(VO)-O-IV(mu-O)(VO)-O-V(Me(3)ntb)](CF3SO3)(3).3H(2)O (111). Crystal structures of 2, 7, and 11 are reported. The mixed-valence complexes, 8 and 11, show 15-line isotropic ESR spectra in fluid solutions at room temperature. These compounds also exhibit an intervalence transfer band around 1015 nm which is essentially independent of solvent, so these compounds are stable, mixed-valence species where the single unpaired electron is delocalized over the two vanadium centers at ambient temperature, With respect to one-electron reduction, the dioxovanadium(V) complexes are redox-potential equivalent with their monooxovanadium(IV) counterparts.
