Vanadyl acetate is the coordination polymer with the empirical formula VO(CH₃COO)₂, which can be simplified to VO(OAc)₂ and giving rise to a systematic name of vanadium(IV) oxide diacetate. It is a tan solid, insoluble in most solvents.^[1]

Production and structure

Vanadyl acetate is produced by treating vanadium pentoxide with acetic anhydride. The acetic anhydride serves as the reducing agent converting the vanadium(V) to vanadium(IV); the oxidized byproduct of the reaction has not been identified.^[1]^[2]

V₂O₅ + 3 (CH₃CO)₂O → 2 VO(CH₃COO)₂ + 2 CO₂ + ...

This compound has a linear polymeric structure consisting of repeating VO₆ octahedra.^[1]

It forms adducts with pyridine, urea, and thiourea. It also has been reported to catalyzes the acetylation of alcohols.^[4]
