Vanadium (IV) and vanadium (V) cupferrate compositions in benzene phase were determined by molar ratio method and continuous variation method spectrophotometrically at 450$m{\mu}$ or 445$m{\mu}$ of wavelength. Compositions of vanadium (IV) cupferrates, V(IV)/Cupf, varied from 1/2 to 1/4 with the acidity of solution from which the complexes were precipitated. The complexes precipitated were vanadium(IV) cupferrate($VCupf_4$) in solution with lower pH than 1.0, and vanadyl(IV) cupferrate ($VOCupf_2$) in solution with 1.8-4.3 of pH. It was considered, however, that the complexes in solution with 1.3-1.7 of pH might be hydrogen vanadyl(IV) cupferrate ($HVOCupf_3$) or nearly equimolar mixture of $VCupf_4\;and\;VOCupf_2$ complexes. Vanadium (V) cupferrate composition did not vary with the acidity of solution from which the complexes were precipitated. In solution with lower pH than 1.8, the complex precipitated was hydrogen vanadyl (V) cupferrate, $HVO_2Cupf_2$.

Modified Bloch equations were used to simulate the solution EPR spectra of mixed-valence heteropolyanions containing vanadium(IV) and vanadium(V). Simulated are the 15-, 22-, 36- and 43-line spectra of $\alpha$-1,2-$[PV(IV)VW_{10})O_{40}]^{6-},\;[P_2V(IV)V_2W_{15}O_{62}]^{10-},\;[HP_2V(IV)V_2W_{15}O_{62}]^{9-}$ and $\alpha$-1,2,3-$[HSiV(IV)V_2W_9O_{40}]^{7-}$, respectively. The transition probabilities for the intramolecular electron transfer were determined from the simulations.

Polycrystalline powder of vanadium-doped forsterite (Vδ $Mg_2SiO_4$) was synthesized by the $H_2O_2$-assisted sol-gel method. The vanadium dopant, which was added as VO$(OMe)_3$ in methanol, went through several redox reactions as the sol-gel reaction proceeded. Upon adding VO$(OMe)_3$ to a mixture of $Mg(OMe)_2$ and Si$(OEt)_4$ in methanol, V(V) reduced to V(IV). As hydrolysis reaction proceeded, the V(IV) oxidized all back to V(V). Apparently, some of the V(V) reduced to V(IV) during subsequent gelation by condensation reaction. The V(IV) remained even after heat treatment of the gel in highly oxidizing atmosphere. The crystallization of the xerogel around 880 ℃ readily produced single phase forsterite without any minor phase. Using the polycrystalline powder as feeding stock, single crystals of vanadium-doped forsterite were grown by the floating zone method in oxidizing or reducing atmosphere. The doping was limited in low level because of the high partitioning of the vanadium in liquid phase during melting. The greenish single crystal absorbed visible light of 700∼1100 nm. But, no emission was obtained in near infrared range.

2-Hydroxybenzaldehyde-5-Nitro-pyridylhydrazone (2HB-5NPH) was synthesized and its application in the spectrophotometric determination of vanadium ion(IV) was studied in the presence of surfactant. The optimum conditions of pH, solvent effect, concentration of ligand and surfactant were evaluated. The procedure was applied to determination of vanadium (IV) in mixture sample and real sample with satisfactory results (recovery ${\geq}$ 97% ; relative standard deviation ${\leq}$ 3.0% in the concentration range of $0{\sim}1.5{\mu}g/mL$ ; detection limit, $0.02{\mu}g/mL$ in solution).

The solution epr spectra of ${\alpha}-1,2,3-[H_nPV(IV)V_2W_9O_{40}]^{(7-n)-}$were measured at various pH and three protonated species have been identified. The spectrum of $H_3PV(IV)Ⅴ_2$ consisting of 8 lines indicates that the V-OH-V bridge prevents effectively the electron transfer between the vanadium atoms. The spectrum of $H_2PV(IV)V_2$ consisting of 15 lines can be interpreted by assuming that the electron is hopping fast between the two vanadium atoms in the V-O-V sequence. The multi-line spectrum of $HPV(IV)V_2$ is interpreted as a poorly resolved 43-line spectrum which originates from the electron hopping among the three vanadium atoms with the forward and backward transition probabilities of 4:1 in the OH-V-O-V sequence.

Kinetic studies on the vanadium(IV)-catalyzed oxidation of dimethylsulfoxide by hydrogen peroxide in water and aqueous methanol and ethanol show that the reaction is the first order in the concentration of dimethylsulfoxide and hydrogen peroxide, respectively. Activation parameters are also measured for the oxidation of dimethylsulfoxide. It is suggested that the rate determining step is a process involving oxidation of dimethylsulfoxide as the result of nucleophilic attack by the sulfur on the O-O bond of vanadium(V)-peroxide complex.

Vanadium yeast was prepared by uptaking vanadate in yeast cells. The growth rate of yeast cells was enhanced by 1-5% glucose. While the growth rate of yeast cells was not significantly affected by YEPD containing less than 1mM vanadate, it was completely inhibited by 2.5 mM vanadate. Vanadium uptake in yeast cells was increased with increasing vanadate concentration in growth medium. Vanadate (V) was reduced to vanadyl (IV) in yeast cells associating with macromolecular compounds in cells. Oral administration of vanadium yeast significantly reduced blood glucose levels of streptozotocin treated rats same as vanadate. Vanadate and vanadium yeast similarly increased glucose oxidation in isolated adipocytes. Therefore, it was suggested that vanadium yeast could have an antidiabetic activity potency similar to that of vanadate.

Reaction of Keggin- or Dawson-type heteropolyanions containing two adjacent vanadium atoms with acetic anhydride in the presence of acid produced acylated anions. Heteropolyanions with one or no vanadium atom do not react under the same conditions, indicating that the acyl group is attached to the bridging oxygen atom between the two vanadium atoms. A characteristic infrared band at 1760 $cm^{-1}$ was observed for the acylated anions. The 8-line EPR spectrum shows that one of the vanadium atoms is reduced to V(IV ). The acylated heteropolyanions are easily hydrolyzed, and its acyl group can also be transferred to aniline.

Vanadium-incorporated aluminophosphate microporous molecular sieve VH-SAPO-42 has been studied by electron spin resonance(ESR) and electron spin-echo modulation (ESEM) spectroscopies to determine the vanadium location and interaction with various adsorbate molecules. The results are interpreted in terms of V(IV) ion location and coordination geometry. Assynthesized VH-SAPO-42 contains only vanadyl species with distorted octahedral or trigonal bipyramidal coordination. Vanadium incorporated into H-SAPO-42 occupied extra-framework site. After calcinations in $O_2$ and exposure to moisture, only species A is observed with reduced intensities. Species A is identified as a $VO(H_2O)_2^{2+}$ complex coordinated to three framework oxygen atoms bonded to aluminum. When hydrated VH-SAPO-42 is dehydrated at elevated temperature by calcination, species A loses its water ligand and transforms to $VO^{2+}$ ions coordinated to three framework oxygens (species B). Species B reduces its intensities significantly after treatment with $O_2$ at high temperature, thus suggesting oxidation of $V^{4+}$ to $V^{5+}$. When dehydrated VH-SAPO-42 makes contact with $D_2O$ at room temperature, the ESR signal of species A is regained. The species is assumed as a $VO(O_f)_3(D_2O)_2$ by considering three framework oxygens. Adsorption of deuterated methanol on dehydrated VH-SAPO-42 results in another new vanadium species D, which is identified as a $VO(CD_3OH)_2$ complex. When deuterated ethylene is adsorbed on dehydrated VH-SAPO-42, another new vanadium species E identified as a $VO(C_2D_4)^{2+}$, is observed. Possible coordination geometries of these various complexes are discussed.
