Synthesis and characterization of oxovanadium(IV) urea compound

Abstract
Vanadyl chloride, VOCl2.6H2O, reacts with urea at room temperature to form the four coordinated oxovanadium(IV) complex of the type [V(O)(urea)2(Cl)2]. The complex is in the mononuclear form where the two urea molecules and two chlorides occupy the four equatorial positions in a plane perpendicular to the vanadyl oxygen forming a distorted square pyramid.
