Sodium orthovanadate is the inorganic compound with the chemical formula Na3VO4·2H2O (sodium orthovanadate dihydrate). It is a salt of the VO3−
4
oxyanion. It is a colorless, water-soluble solid.[1]

Synthesis and structure

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
centers linked to octahedral Na+ sites.[2]

Reactions

Acidification of orthovanadate induces condensation to polyoxovanadates, specifically decavanadate.[3]

Vanadates exhibit a variety of biological activities, in part because they serve as structural mimics of phosphates.[4][5]
