The hydrazone anion in the title compound, [V(C(11)H(12)N(3)O(2))O(2)]·H(2)O, is zwitterionic as its pyridyl N atom is protonated; the O, N and O' atoms span the axial-equatorial-axial positions of the trigonal-bipyramidal coord-in-ation polyhedron of the metal atom. All non-H atoms lie on a crystallographic mirror plane apart from the oxide ligands, which are related by mirror symmetry. The pyridinium N atom acts as a hydrogen-bond donor to the solvent water mol-ecule, which is in turn a hydrog ...[more]
