Three novel Zn(II) complexes (1-3) with 1,1'-(anthracen-9-ylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazole) (L-2) have been prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. Among them, 1 is a binuclear Zn(II) complex while 2 and 3 are mononuclear. The in vitro cytotoxic and antibacterial activities of these complexes were also evaluated. The three complexes exhibit cytotoxic specificity and significant antitumor activity. The MIC50 value of complex 1 against Pseudomonas putida reaching 0.011 mu g/mL much lower than that the positive control chloromycin (0.182 mu g/mL), indicates that complex 1 is a potent antibacterial agent.
