THE chemistry of oxovanadium(iv) is of interest  from chemical, structural and biological point of view^1-5. Keeping this in view and our interest in the chemistry of mixed ligand complexes^6-8, we report here the synthesis and characterisation of some mixed ligand anionic complexes of oxovana­dium(iv) of the type M[VOL₂X], where M = Na or K ; X=SCN^- or \(N^-_2\) ; L = anion of acetylacetone (acacH), oxine (oxH), pyridine carboxylic acid (pycaH).
