Novel binuclear copper(II) complexes of di-2-pyridyl ketone N(4)-methyl, N(4)-phenylthiosemicarbazone: Structural and spectral investigations
摘要:
Four binuclear complexes [Cu(dptsc)Cl](2) center dot 3H(2)O (1), [Cu(dptsc)Br](2) (2), [Cu(dptsc)(p-N-3)](2) (3) and [Cu(dptsc)(NO3)](2) center dot H2O (4) (where Hdptsc = di-2-pyridyl ketone N(4)-methyl, N(4)-phenylthiosemicarbazone) have been synthesized and physicochemically characterized. Each Cu(II) atom in the monomeric unit exists in a penta-coordinate environment. The molecular structures of [Cu(dptsc)Br](2) and [Cu(dptsc)(mu-N-3)](2) are resolved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Both the crystals are centrosymmetric dimers where each ligand unit coordinates through one of the pyridyl nitrogens, azomethine nitrogen and thiolate sulfur to Cu(II). A distorted square pyramidal geometry is observed around Cu(II) for both the complexes, where the N(2) nitrogen of the second ligand unit coordinates to the first Cu(II) center in compound 2 and N(6) nitrogen of the azido group bridges both the Cu(II) centers in compound 3. Spectral characterization corroborate the structural studies. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
Novel Second-Generation Di-2-Pyridylketone Thiosemicarbazones Show Synergism with Standard Chemotherapeutics and Demonstrate Potent Activity against Lung Cancer Xenografts after Oral and Intravenous Administration in Vivo
摘要:
We developed a series of second-generation di-2-pyridyl ketone thiosemicarbazone (DpT) and 2-benzoylpyridine thiosemicarbazone (BpT) ligands to improve the efficacy safety profile of these potential antitumor agents. Two novel DpT analogues, Dp4e4mT and DpC, exhibited pronounced and selective activity against human lung cancer xenografts in vivo via the intravenous and oral routes. Importantly, these analogues did not induce the cardiotoxicity observed at high nonoptimal doses of the first-generation DpT analogue, Dp44mT. The Cu(II) complexes of these ligands exhibited potent antiproliferative activity having redox potentials in a range accessible to biological reductants. The activity of the copper complexes of Dp4e4mT and DpC against lung cancer cells was synergistic in combination with gemcitabine or cisplatin. It was demonstrated by EPR spectroscopy that dimeric copper compounds of the type [CuLCl](2), identified crystallographically, dissociate in solution to give monomeric 1:1 Cu:ligand complexes. These monomers represent the biologically active form of the complex.

The combination of cytotoxic copper-thiosemicarbazone complexes with phenoxazines results in an up to 50-fold enhancement in the cytotoxic potential of the thiosemicarbazone against the MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma cell line over the effect attributable to drug additivity-allowing minimization of the more toxic copper-thiosemicarbazone component of the therapy. The combination of a benzophenoxazine with all classes of copper complex examined in this study proved more effective than combinations of the copper complexes with related isoelectronic azines. The combination approach results in rapid elevation of intracellular reactive oxygen levels followed by apoptotic cell death. Normal fibroblasts representative of non-cancerous cells (MRC-5) did not display a similar elevation of reactive oxygen levels when exposed to similar drug levels. The minimization of the copper-thiosemicarbazone component of the therapy results in an enhanced safety profile against normal fibroblasts.

The molecule of the title compound, C19H17N5S, adopts a Z configuration about the azomethine bond and exists as the thione tautomer. The overall structure of the molecule is distributed in four different planes. An intramolecular hydrogen bond involving the pyridyl N atom and the H atom attached to the hydrazine N atom leads to the formation of a six- membered ring.

The reaction between manganese(II) acetate and two substituted thiosemicarbazones derived from di-2-pyridyl ketone (HL) in 1:2 molar ratio produces new complexes of general formula [MnL2]. The thiosemicarbazone moiety in HL deprotonates and gets coordinated to Mn(II) through the azomethine nitrogen, one of the pyridyl nitrogens, and the thiolate sulfur in both the complexes. The crystal structure of [MnL2] was established by single crystal X-ray diffraction and the compound crystallizes into a monoclinic lattice with P2(1)/c space group. Manganese(11) exists in a distorted octahedral geometry in the complexes. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
