Abstract

By using an asymmetrical 2-carboxyphenylphosphonate ligand (2-cpp3−), a chiral layered vanadium compound (VO)3(2-cpp)2(H2O)6·H2O (1) is isolated. The bulk sample is enantioenriched due to symmetry breaking on crystallization. Partial release of the coordination water molecules upon heating leads to a single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation to compound [(VO)3(2-cpp)2(H2O)4] (1a) which is centrosymmetric.
