AbstractTwo new mononuclear vanadium(V) complexes, [VOL1L'] (I) and [VOL2L'] (II), where L1 and L2
are the dianionic form of 2hydroxyN'(4oxopentan2ylidene)benzohydrazide and 4bromoN'(4oxo
pentan2ylidene)benzohydrazide, respectively, and L' is 8hydroxyquinoline, have been prepared. The com
plexes have been characterized by physicochemical methods and single crystal Xray determination (CIF
files CCDC nos. 1044151 (I) and 1044152 (II)). The V atoms in both complexes are coordinated by the three
donor atoms of L, two donor atoms of L', and one oxo group, forming octahedral coordination. Insulin
mimetic tests on C2C12 muscle cells using biovision glucose assay indicates that the complexes significantly
stimulated cell glucose utilization with cytotoxicity at 0.10 g L1.

EXPERIMENTAL
Materials and measurements. Commercially avail
able chemicals were purchased from Lancaster and
used without further purification. C, H, and N ele
mental analyses were performed with a PerkinElmer
240C elemental analyser. IR spectra were recorded on
a Nicolet AVATAR 360 spectrometer as KBr pellets in
the 4000400 cm1 region. UVVis spectra were
recorded on a Lambda 900 spectrometer. Absorbance
was recorded on a BioTek model ELx800 96well
plate reader.
Synthesis of complex I. To a methanolic solution
(10 mL) of 2hydroxybenzohydrazide (0.1 mmol,
15.2 mg) was added a methanolic solution (10 mL) of
VO(Acac)2 (0.1 mmol, 26.5 mg), with continuous stir
ring. The mixture was stirred for 30 min at room tem
perature to give a deep brown solution. Upon keeping
the solution in air for about a week, brown blocklike
single crystals suitable for Xray diffraction were
deposited at the bottom of the vessel. The isolated
product was washed three times with cold methanol,
