Abstract
Stochiometric reaction of salicylaldoxime and tantalum or niobium
ethoxide in toluene at room temperature resulted in formation of
M2O(C7H5NO2)(2)(C2HSO)(4), M=Ta and Nb which were crystallized from
CH2Cl2 at 5 degrees C and characterized by spectroscopic techniques. The
molecular structures of Ta2O(C7H5NO2)(2)(C2HSO)(4) was determined by
single-crystal X-ray diffraction and compared with molecular structure
of Nb2O(C2H5NO2)(2)(C2HSO)(4) The geometries at metal atoms are
distorted octahedron which shared an apex through bridged oxygen. Each
dianionic salicylaldoximate ligand chelates to the one metal ion through
its phenolic oxygen and oximate nitrogen atoms, and to another metal ion
through its oximate oxygen atom. (C) 2011 Academie des sciences.
