Abstract

The title compound, [V(C5H7O2)(NCS)O(C10H8N2)], crystallizes with Z' = 2 in the space group Pbca. The mol-ecules are linked into sheets by a combination of four C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds and one C-H center dot center dot center dot N hydrogen bond. The four C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds generate chains of rings, where each chain contains just a single enanti-omer of each of the two independent mol-ecules, while the C-HcN hydrogen bond generates a chain containing both enanti-omers of just one of the independent molecules.
