1. Please try to provide English error messages.
2. If you want deriv to work on the expressions for vacv[], then please 
do it rather than ttrying to work on already evaluated expressions as 
you do.

One exmaple that works would be to say:
  vacv <- NULL
  vacv[1] <- expression(1-2*phi*theta-theta^2)
  ...
and later on:
   deriv(vacv[i], c("phi", "theta"), function(phi,theta){})

of yourse, you need to evaluate vacv later on if you really want to 
calculate the values....
