Cyclopentadienyltin(IV) derivatives: Synthesis, characterization and study of their cytotoxic activities
摘要:
The organotin compounds. [SnPh3(C5H4R)] (R = Bu' (1), CMe2(CH2CH2CH=CH2) (2)) and [SnPh3(C5Me4R)] (R = H (3), SiMe3 (4)), were prepared by the reaction of SnPh3Cl with the lithium derivative of the corresponding cyclopentadiene. 1-4 have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy (H-1, C-13{H-1} and Sn-119{H-1)). In addition. the molecular structures of 1, 2 and 4 were determined by single-crystal Xray diffraction studies. The cytotoxic activity of the organotin(IV) complexes (1-4) was tested against human tumour cell lines 8505C anaplastic thyroid cancer, A253 head and neck turnout. A549 lung carcinoma, A2780 ovarian cancer, DLD-1 colon carcinoma. Compounds 1-4 present higher activities than cisplatin in all the studied cells. The highest sensitivity of the synthesized tin(IV) complexes was observed against A2780 ovarian cancer and DLD-1 colon carcinoma. Complex 3 presents the highest cytotoxic activity of all the studied complexes in all the cancer cells, with IC50 values from 0.037 to 0.085 mu M, however, its trimethylsilyl-substituted analogue (4), showed the lowest activity against all the studied cells with IC50 values from 0.163 to 0.351 mu M. Complexes 1 and 2 presented very similar activities on all the cancer cells (IC50 values from 0.044 to 0.119 mu M). (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
