description New oxidovanadium(V) complexes, <b>VOL<sup>1</sup></b>–<b>VOL<sup>10</sup></b>, with chiral tetradentate Schiff bases obtained by monocondensation reaction of salicylaldehyde derivatives with 1<i>S</i>,2<i>S</i>-(+)-2-amino-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1,3-propanediol. All complexes have been characterized using different spectroscopic methods, viz. IR, UV-Vis, circular dichroism, one- (<sup>1</sup>H, <sup>51</sup>V) and two-dimensional (COSY, NOESY) NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the catalytic ability of all compounds in the epoxidation of styrene, cyclohexene, and its naturally occurring monoterpene derivatives, i.e., <i>S</i>(−)-limonene and (−)-α-pinene has also been studied, using two different oxidants, i.e., aqueous 30% H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> or <i>tert</i>-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP). In addition, the biological properties of these chiral oxidovanadium(V) compounds, but also <i>cis</i>-dioxidomolybdenum(VI) complexes with the same chiral Schiff bases, were studied. Their cytotoxic and cytoprotective activity studies with the HT-22 hippocampal neuronal cells revealed a concentration-dependent effect in the range of 10–100 μM. Moreover, vanadium(V) complexes, in contrast to <i>cis</i>-dioxidomolybdenum(VI) compounds, demonstrated higher cytotoxicity and lack of cytoprotective ability against H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>-induced cytotoxicity.
