Abstract
The biologically active and thermally stable bivalent Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes (C1, C2, C3, and C4) of novel Schiff base ligand [(5-trifluoromethyl-2-methoxyphenylamino)methyl)-4,6-diiodophenol (L)] have been synthesized. The structural analysis of these complexes have been carried out by elemental analysis, 1H-NMR, FTIR, ESI mass, UV-visible, ESR, TGA techniques and magnetic measurements. The obtained results were confirmed as square planar geometry for Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes, whereas octahedral geometry for Co(II) and Zn(II) complexes. The geometry optimized structures were developed by employing CHEM 3D software. The DNA binding interaction studies such as UV-vis absorption, viscosity, and fluorescence studies have been confirmed that the mode of binding of complexes with DNA is an intercalative binding. The DNA cleavage studies revealed that all the complexes are found to be potent to cleave the DNA into Form I & II. The in-vitro pathological studies of all the complexes against various microbial strains (Gram + and Gram -), revealed that Cu(II) complexes are more potent compared to other complexes and Schiff base. The anti diabetic activity studies revealed that the Cu(II) complex exhibited slightly higher activity than Co(II), Ni(II), and Zn(II) complexes. The results of antioxidant activity by DPPH method, suggested that the Cu(II) complex has higher activity and comparable with the standard compounds.

Abstract
The known ruthenium complex [Ru(tpy)(bpy)(Hmte)](PF6)2 ([1](PF6)2, where tpy = 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, Hmte = 2-(methylthio)ethanol) is photosubstitutionally active but non-toxic to cancer cells even upon light irradiation. In this work, the two analogs complexes [Ru(tpy)(NN)(Hmte)](PF6)2, where NN = 3,3'-biisoquinoline (i-biq, [2](PF6)2) and di(isoquinolin-3-yl)amine (i-Hdiqa, [3](PF6)2), were synthesized and their photochemistry and phototoxicity evaluated to assess their suitability as photoactivated chemotherapy (PACT) agents. The increase of the aromatic surface of [2](PF6)2 and [3](PF6)2, compared to [1](PF6)2, leads to higher lipophilicity and higher cellular uptake for the former complexes. Such improved uptake is directly correlated to the cytotoxicity of these compounds in the dark: while [2](PF6)2 and [3](PF6)2 showed low EC50 values in human cancer cells, [1](PF6)2 is not cytotoxic due to poor cellular uptake. While stable in the dark, all complexes substituted the protecting thioether ligand upon light irradiation (520 nm), with the highest photosubstitution quantum yield found for [3](PF6)2 (Φ[3] = 0.070). Compounds [2](PF6)2 and [3](PF6)2 were found both more cytotoxic after light activation than in the dark, with a photo index of 4. Considering the very low singlet oxygen quantum yields of these compounds, and the lack of cytotoxicity of the photoreleased Hmte thioether ligand, it can be concluded that the toxicity observed after light activation is due to the photoreleased aqua complexes [Ru(tpy)(NN)(OH2)]2+, and thus that [2](PF6)2 and [3](PF6)2 are promising PACT candidates.

Abstract
The widespread use of antibiotics has resulted in the emergence of drug-resistant populations of microorganisms. Clearly, one can see the need to develop new, more effective, antimicrobial agents that go beyond the explored 'chemical space'. In this regard, their unique modes of action (e.g., reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, redox activation, ligand exchange, depletion of substrates involved in vital cellular processes) render metal complexes as promising drug candidates. Several Ru (II/III) complexes have been included in, or are currently undergoing, clinical trials as anticancer agents. Based on the in-depth knowledge of their chemical properties and biological behavior, the interest in developing new ruthenium compounds as antibiotic, antifungal, antiparasitic, or antiviral drugs has risen. This review will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of Ru (II/III) frameworks as antimicrobial agents. Some aspects regarding the relationship between their chemical structure and mechanism of action, cellular localization, and/or metabolism of the ruthenium complexes in bacterial and eukaryotic cells are discussed as well. Regarding the antiviral activity, in light of current events related to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Ru (II/III) compounds used against SARS-CoV-2 (e.g., BOLD-100) are also reviewed herein.

Abstract
Four new ferrocenyl substituted thiosemicarbazone ligands (L1-L4) and their corresponding binuclear ruthenium(II) arene complexes of the general type [(η6-p cym)(L)Ru(μ-im)Ru(L)(η6-p-cym)]Cl (C1-C4) and [(η6-p cym)(L)Ru(μ-azpy)Ru(L)(η6-p-cym)]Cl2 (C5-C8) (cym = cymene, im = imidazole, azpy = 4,4'-azopyridine) have been synthesized and characterized. The structures of the complexes were established through DFT calculations and geometry optimization. The interactions of the binuclear complexes with DNA were investigated by absorption, emission and viscosity studies which indicated that the complexes bind to DNA via intercalation. Meanwhile, the interaction of complexes with the protein, bovine serum albumin (BSA), has also been studied using fluorescence emission spectroscopy. The experimental results show that the binuclear complexes exhibit good binding propensities to BSA. The complexes can quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA remarkably through a static or dynamic quenching process. In addition, the in vitro cytotoxicity of complexes C1-C8 against HeLa cell line was assayed which showed lower IC50 values indicating their higher cytotoxicity and potency in killing the cancer cells at low concentrations.Communicated by Ramaswamy H.

Abstract
The octahedral Ru(II) complexes containing the 2(2,6-dimethoxypyridine-3-yl)-1H-imidazo(4,5-f)[1, 10]phenanthroline ligand of type [Ru(N-N)2(L)]2+, where N-N = phen (1,10-phenanthroline) (1), bpy (2,2'-bipyridine) (2), and dmb (4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) (3); L(dmpip) = (2(2,6-dimethoxypyridine-3-yl)1Himidazo(4,5-f)[1, 10]phenanthroline), have been synthesized and characterized by UV-visible absorption, molar conductivity, elemental analysis, mass, IR, and NMR spectroscopic techniques. The physicochemical properties of the Ru(II) complexes were determined by UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. The DNA binding studies have been explored by UV-visible absorption, fluorescence titrations, and viscosity measurements. The supercoiled pBR322 DNA cleavage efficiency of Ru(II) complexes 1-3 was investigated. The antimicrobial activity of Ru(II) complexes was done against Gram-positive and Gram-negative microorganisms. The in vitro anticancer activities of all the complexes were investigated by cell viability assay, apoptosis, cellular uptake, mitochondrial membrane potential detection, and semi-quantitative PCR on HeLa cells. The result indicates that the synthesized Ru(II) complexes probably interact with DNA through an intercalation mode of binding with complex 1 having slightly stronger DNA binding affinity and anticancer activity than 2 and 3.

Abstract
A novel ligand BOPIP (BOPIP = {2-(4-(benzyloxy)phenyl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline}) and its mononuclear Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes [Ru(phen)2 BOPIP]2+(1) (phen = 1,10-Phenanthrolene), [Ru(bpy)2 BOPIP]2+(2) (bpy = 2,2' bipyridyl), [Ru(dmb)2 BOPIP]2+(3) (dmb = 4, 4' -dimethyl 2, 2' -bipyridine), [Ru(Hdpa)2 BOPIP]2+(4) (Hdpa = 2,2'dipyridylamine) have been synthesized successfully and characterized by elemental analysis, UV-vis, IR, 1H, 13 C-NMR, and ESI-MS Spectroscopy. The interaction of these complexes with CT-DNA was studied using absorption, emission techniques, viscosity measurements and molecular docking studies. The docking study also supports the binding ability of complexes obtained through the absorption and emission techniques. These studies reveal that the Four Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes bind to DNA predominantly by intercalation. The Antimicrobial activity and cytotoxicity of these complexes are also reported.

Abstract
Ruthenium is seldom mentioned in microbiology texts, due to the fact that this metal has no known, essential roles in biological systems, nor is it generally considered toxic. Since the fortuitous discovery of cisplatin, first as an antimicrobial agent and then later employed widely as an anticancer agent, complexes of other platinum group metals, such as ruthenium, have attracted interest for their medicinal properties. Here, we review at length how ruthenium complexes have been investigated as potential antimicrobial, antiparasitic and chemotherapeutic agents, in addition to their long and well-established roles as biological stains and inhibitors of calcium channels. Ruthenium complexes are also employed in a surprising number of biotechnological roles. It is in the employment of ruthenium complexes as antimicrobial agents and alternatives or adjuvants to more traditional antibiotics, that we expect to see the most striking developments in the future. Such novel contributions from organometallic chemistry are undoubtedly sorely needed to address the antimicrobial resistance crisis and the slow appearance on the market of new antibiotics.
