چکیده

The iron(II) complexes and with pentadentate pyridyl ligands are stable under physiological conditions and exhibit higher cytotoxicities toward a series of human carcinoma cell lines than cisplatin; can significantly increase intracellular oxidant levels, cleave supercoiled plasmid DNA in vitro without addition of a reductant and induce apoptotic cell death in human cervical epithelioid carcinoma cells (HeLa) as observed in flow cytometric studies.

Synthesis and characterization of mono- and heterodinuclear complexes of dinucleating macrocyclic ligand bearing hexa- and pentadentate coordination sites

Macrocyclic heterobinuclear Zn(II)–Cu(II) complexes with phenol based dicompartmental ligands possessing contiguous hexa- and penta-coordination sites were prepared by a stepwise procedure. The ligands include similar N4O2 and dissimilar N(imine)3O2 and N(amine)3O2 coordination sites sharing two phenolic oxygen atoms. The six-coordination site comprises two pyridyl pendant arms on the amine nit...

Structural diversity of copper(II) complexes with N-(2-pyridyl)imidazolidin-2-ones(thiones) and their in vitro antitumor activity.

Six series of structurally different mono- and binuclear copper(II) complexes 5-10 were obtained by reacting N-(2-pyridyl)imidazolidin-2-ones (1a-l), N,N'-bis(2-pyridyl)imidazolidin-2-ones (2a,b), N-acyl-N'(2-pyridyl)imidazolodin-2-ones (3a-j) and N-(2-pyridyl)imidazolidine-2-thiones (4a-g) with copper(II) chloride at an ambient temperature. The coordination modes of the complexes obtained were...
