Imino-quinolyl palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes: Synthesis, characterization, molecular structures and cytotoxic effect
摘要:
Imino-quinolyl ligands L1-L5 were synthesized by condensation reaction sand obtained in good yields. Reactions of the ligands with either PdCl2(cod) or K-2[PtCl4] gave the corresponding palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes 1-10 also in good yields. All the compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, H-1 and C-13 NMR spectroscopy. X-ray crystallography was used to confirm the structures of these compounds. Molecular structures of 3 and 5 showed that the ligands coordinate to the metal center through the two nitrogen atoms, generating a distorted square planar geometry around the palladium atom. The new complexes exhibited remarkable cytotoxic activities against MCF-7 and HT-29 cancer cell lines. (C) 2013 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.

antiproliferative activity towards A549 and Hela cancer cells, except for Cp* complex 1A towards Hela cells. Cpxbiph complex 2B displayed the highest potency, about 19× and 6× times more active than the clinical used drug cisplatin toward A549 and Hela cells, respectively. These complexes undergo hydrolysis and the kinetics data were calculated. DNA binding has been studied by interaction with nucleobases 9-ethylguanine
Zwitterionic and cationic half-sandwich iridium(<scp>iii</scp>) ruthenium(<scp>ii</scp>) complexes bearing sulfonate groups: synthesis, characterization and their different biological activities
iridium(III) and ruthenium(II) complexes showed that the charge and the substitution pattern of the bidentate ligands, as well as the nature of the accompanying counteranion have a significant effect on their biological activities. In this contribution, a series of zwitterionic and cationic half-sandwich iridium(III) and ruthenium(II) complexes containing sulfonategroups have been prepared and characterized

Chemotherapy is limited by the poor selectivitytowardscancercells over normal cells. Herein, we designed half-sandwich ruthenium imino-pyridyl complexes [(η6-bz)Ru(N^N)Cl]PF6 to achieve selective cytotoxicity to cancercells. This kind of rutheniumcomplexes has unique characteristics and is worthy of further exploration in the design of new anticancer drugs.
Poor selectivity between cancer cells and normal cells is one of the major limitations of cancer chemotherapy. Lysosome-targeted ruthenium-based complexes target tumor cells selectively, only displaying rather weak cytotoxicity or inactivity toward normal cells. Confocal microscopy was employed for the first time to determine the cellular localization of the half-sandwich Ru complex.

A selective oxidation of benzylic C(sp3)–H bonds to C(sp3)–O bonds catalyzed by copper complexes of quinoline–imine ligands was developed with peresters as oxidants under mild reaction conditions, which converted benzylic methylenes directly into benzylic alcohols and esters by means of direct C–H bond functionalization.
