The gas-phase reactivity of doubly-charged vanadium hydroxides anions with SO2 has been studied by experimental and computational methods. The obtainedresults highlight the role of sulfur dioxide in promoting unprecedented bond-forming reactions, which produce singly-charged products by breaking the VxOy skeleton or a terminal VObond.
