Synthesis and structure

edit

Sodium orthovanadate is produced by dissolving vanadium(V) oxide in a solution of sodium hydroxide:

V2O5 + 6 NaOH → 2 Na3VO4 + 3 H2O

The salt features tetrahedral VO3−4 anion centers linked to octahedral Na+ cation sites.[3]

Condensation equilibria

edit

Like many oxometalates, orthovanadate is subject to a number of reactions, which have been analyzed by 51V NMR studies. At high pH, VO3−4 ions exist in equilibrium with HVO2−4.[4] At lower pH's, condensation ensues to give various polyoxovanadates. Ultimately, decavanadate is formed.[5]

Biochemistry

edit

Vanadates exhibit a variety of biological activities, in part because they serve as structural mimics of phosphates.[6][7] It acts as a competitive inhibitor of ATPases, alkaline and acid phosphatases, and protein-phosphotyrosine phosphatases,[8] and its inhibitory effects can be reversed by dilution or the addition of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA).[9]

Orthovanadate is activated by boiling and adjusting pH to ~10; this depolymerizes decavanadate into the active inhibitor, monovanadate.[8]
