General description

Ammonium metavanadate is a water soluble inorganic acid. It is a cheaply available, mild and efficient catalyst. Its ability to alter female reproduction has been studied in swiss albino mice.

Application

Ammonium metavanadate may be used as a substrate in the synthesis of the following:
  • silver vanadate (AgVO3) nanorods
  • manganese vanadate nanobelts
  • vanadium oxide hydrate semi-microspheres
It may be used as a catalyst in the synthesis of the following:
  • azalactone derivatives
  • 2,4,5-triaryl-1H-imidazoles
  • octahydroquinazolinone derivatives
  • α-hydroxyphosphonates
