(Acetyl-acetone 3-hy-droxy-2-naphtho-yl-hydrazonato-κO,N',O')(methoxo-κO)oxidovanadate(V)

The tridentate Schiff base ligand in the title compound, [V(C(16)H(14)N(2)O(3))(CH(3)O)O], has its O, N and O' atoms spanning three basal positions of the square-based-pyrimidally V(V) atom. The fourth basal site is occupied by a methoxo ligand, which results from a deprotonated methanol solvent molecule, and the oxido ligand occupies the apical position. The hy-droxy H atom forms an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond with an N-atom acceptor site.
