Abstract
The triazole functional group plays a pivotal role in the composition of biomolecules with potent anticancer activities, including numerous clinically approved drugs. The strategic utilization of the triazole fragment in the rational modification of lead compounds has demonstrated its ability to improve anticancer activities, enhance selectivity, optimize pharmacokinetic properties, and overcome resistance. There has been significant interest in triazole-containing hybrids in recent years due to their remarkable anticancer potential. However, previous reviews on triazoles in cancer treatment have failed to provide tailored design strategies specific to these compounds. Herein, we present an overview of design strategies encompassing a structure-modification approach for incorporating triazoles into hybrid molecules. This review offers valuable references and briefly introduces the synthesis of triazole derivatives, thereby paving the way for further research and advancements in the field of effective and targeted anticancer therapies.

Abstract
This study investigates the potential of using ionic liquids as cosolvents to enhance the solubility and activity of poorly soluble rhodium(III) complexes, particularly those with diene, pyridine derivatives, and camphor-derived bis-pyrazolylpyridine ligands, in relation to 5'-GMP, CT-DNA, and HSA as well as their biological activity. Findings indicate that ionic liquids significantly increase the substitution activity of these complexes toward 5'-GMP while only marginally affecting DNA/HSA binding affinities with molecular docking, further confirming the experimental results. Lipophilicity assessments indicated good lipophilicity. Notably, cytotoxicity studies show that Rh2 is selectively effective against HeLa cancer cells, with IL1 and IL10 modulating the cytotoxic effects. Redox evaluations indicate that rhodium complexes induce oxidative stress in cancerous cells while maintaining redox balance in noncancerous cells. By elucidating the role of ionic liquids in modulating these effects, the study proposes a promising avenue for augmenting the efficacy and selectivity of cancer treatments, thus opening new horizons in cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
A novel mononuclear palladium complex, [Pd(dach)(SSA)], where dach and SSA are diaminocyclohexane and sulfosalicylic acid ligands, respectively, has been synthesized and identified utilizing analytical and spectral methods. DFT calculations, namely geometry optimization, MEP, HOMO-LUMO and NBO analysis, have been conducted at B3LYP level by aug-ccpVTZ-PP and 6-311G(d, p) basis sets. NBO and HOMO-LUMO analysis exhibited that the palladium compound is stable. MEP showed the potential sites of molecule for the interaction. By employing MTT assay, the cytotoxicity activity of the aforesaid compound was examined on K562 cell line, which revealed a proper activity compared to cisplatin. To ascertain the lipophilicity of the newly made compound, the partition coefficient measurement was accomplished, which follows the order of cisplatin < Pd(II) complex. Next, investigation of binding properties of the studied compound with DNA of calf thymus and BSA were done by spectroscopic (CD, fluorescence emission and electronic adsorption) and non-spectroscopic (viscosity measurements, DNA gel electrophoresis, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation) methods. The outcomes of CD and UV-Vis spectroscopy demonstrated that the title compound refolded the protein via increasing the alpha helix percentage. The data obtained from UV-Vis studies indicated the non-intercalative mutual action between Pd(II) complex with DNA. It also revealed that the Kapp magnitude of CT-DNA (7.43 × 104 M- 1) is higher than the BSA (5.17 × 103 M- 1), and L1/2 (midpoint of transition) of CT-DNA (5 µM) is lower than the BSA (5.7 µM), indicating that the complex has a greater binding affinity to CT-DNA than BSA. Fluorescence quenching mechanism of the two biomolecules by the metal complex is static and the calculated thermodynamic parameters (ΔS° < 0 and ΔH° < 0) suggested the hydrogen bonding and/ or van der Waals forces with DNA and BSA. Further, molecular docking indicated that the studied compound fits into the groove of DNA and the site I of BSA. The stability of metal compound-DNA/-BSA in the presence of H2O solvent and over the time were validated via molecular dynamics simulation.

Abstract
Synthesis of non-platinum transition metal complexes with N,O donor chelating ligand for application against pathogenesis of cancer with higher efficacy and selectivity is currently an important field of research. We assessed the anti-cancer effect of a mixed ligand Ni(II) complex on human breast and lung cancer cell lines in this investigation. Mononuclear mixed ligand octahedral Ni(II) complex [NiIIL(NO3)(MeOH)] complex (1), with tri-dentate phenol-based ligand 2,4-dichloro-6-((4-methylpiperazin-1-yl) methyl) phenol (HL) along with methanol and nitrate as ancillary ligand was prepared. Piperazine moiety of the ligand exists as boat conformation in this complex as revealed from single crystal X-ray study. UV-visible spectrum of complex (1) exhibits three distinct d-d bands due to spin-allowed 3 A2 g→3T1 g (P), 3 A2 g→3T1 g(F) and 3 A2 g→3T2 g(F) transitions as expected in an octahedral d8 system. Our study revealed that Complex (1) induces apoptotic cell death in mouse and human cancer cells such as mcf-7, A549 and MDA-MB-231 through transactivation of p53 and its pro-apoptotic downstream targets in a dose dependent manner. Furthermore, complex (1) was able to slow the migratory rate of MDA-MB-231 cells' in vitro as well as epithelia -mesenchymal transition (EMT), the key step for metastatic transition and malignancy. Over all our results suggest complex (1) as a potential agent in anti-tumor treatment regimen showing both cytotoxic and anti-metastatic activity against malignant neoplasia.

Abstract
New thiazolopyrimidine derivatives 2, 3a-d, 4a-c, 5, 6a-c, and 7a,b were synthesised. All prepared compounds were evaluated by MTT cytotoxicity assay against three human tumour cell lines. Compounds 3c, 3d, 4c, 6a, 6b, and 7b exhibited potent to strong anticancer activity that was nearly comparable or superior to Doxorubicin. Compounds exhibiting significant cytotoxicity were further selected to study their inhibitory activity on the Topo II enzyme. Compound 4c was the most potent Topo II inhibitor with an IC50 value of 0.23 ± 0.01 µM, which was 1.4-fold and 3.6-fold higher than the IC50 values of Etoposide and Doxorubicin. Furthermore, compound 4c showed significant cell cycle disruption and apoptosis on A549 cells compared to control cells. Molecular docking of the most active compounds illustrated proper fitting to the Topo II active site, suggesting that our designed compounds are promising candidates for the development of effective anticancer agents acting through Topo II inhibition.

Abstract
Mononuclear complexes [FeCl3L2(OH2)] (L = L1, L2) were designed and synthesized by combining FeCl3 with 2-(3'-Aminophenylbenzimidazole) (L1) and 2-[(3'-N-Salicylidinephenyl)benzimidazole] (L2) and were characterized by physico-analytical strategies. The redox properties of the complexes were disclosed by the cyclic voltammetric method. Further, the interactions of complexes with proteins were studied by performing molecular docking engaging protein models of common cancer therapeutic targets to foresee their affinity to bind to these proteins. The complexes evidenced better protein-ligand docking (-8.4 and -9.0 kcal mol-1) and higher binding energies than their ligands. However, the L1 complex displayed improved binding free energy (-33.576 ± 1.01 kcal mol-1) compared to the other complexes and individual ligands. These compounds were screened for in vitro cytotoxic assays against triple-negative breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-468 cells), anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties. The in vitro study complemented the in silico assay; therefore, these compounds may be a viable choice for expanding anticancer therapy. Additionally, the L2 showed better biocontrol activity owing to the enhanced growth of Trichoderma and inhibited the growth of Fusarium oxysporum.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
A new zinc(II) complex formulated as [Zn(pipr-ac)2], where pipr-ac stands for piperidineacetate, was synthesized and structurally identified with the help of experimental and DFT methods. Frontier molecular orbital (FMO) analysis demonstrated that the new complex has higher biological activity compared to the free ligand. Molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) showed the nitrogen atoms and oxygen of carbonyl groups are the active sites of Zn(II) compound. Also, natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis confirmed the charge transfer from the ligating atoms to the metal ion and formation of four coordinated Zn(II) complex. MTT assay illustrated a noticeable cytotoxic activity of the new zinc(II) complex compared to cisplatin on K562 cell line. The CT-DNA and serum albumin (SA) binding of the Zn(II) complex were explored individually. In this regard, UV-Vis spectroscopy and florescence titration revealed the occurrences of fluorescence quenching of CT-DNA/SA by metal compound via static mechanism and creation of hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions between them. The binding was further confirmed by viscosity measurement and gel electrophoresis assay for CT-DNA and circular dichroism spectroscopy for SA. Moreover, molecular docking simulation demonstrated that the new compound binds mainly through hydrogen bonds to the groove of DNA and hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions to site I of SA.

Abstract
This paper presents the synthesis and structural characterization of a series of new ruthenium(II) complexes 1-7, with the general formula mer-[RuL3(N-N)Cl]Cl, where L is 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (tpy) or 4'-(4-chlorophenyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (Cl-Ph-tpy) and N-N is o-benzoquinonediimine (o-bqdi), 2,3-naphthoquinonediimine (nqdi), 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (dmbpy) or 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxylic acid (dcbpy). The kinetic results showed that the ligand substitution reactions of new Ru(II)-polypyridyl complexes with biomolecules were affected by different substituents and the aromaticity of meridional tridentate and bidentate spectator ligands as well as by the nature of the entering nucleophile. The reactivity of the complexes increases in the order: dmbpy < dcbipy < nqdi < o-bqdi. In addition, quantum chemical calculations were performed to support the interpretation and discussion of the experimental data. Furthermore, combining ethidium bromide (EB) and Hoechst 33258 (2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-[5-(4-methylpiperazine-1-yl)benzimidazo-2-yl]-benzimidazole) fluorescence assay results implied that 1-7 might interact with calf thymus DNA through partial intercalation and/or minor groove binding. The human serum albumin (HAS)-fluorescence binding studies involving the site markers, eosin Y, as a marker for site I of subdomain IIA, and ibuprofen, as a marker for site II of subdomain IIIA, showed that Ru(II) compounds bind to both sites with moderately strong affinity (Kb = 104-106 M-1). Moreover, these DNA/HSA experimental results were confirmed by molecular docking. Complexes 2, 5 and 6 exerted good to strong and highly selective cytotoxic activity against breast adenocarcinoma (MDA-MB 231), colorectal carcinoma (HCT116) and cervix adenocarcinoma (HeLa). Depending on their structure and cell line, the complexes acted differently in terms of their influence on autophagy, the cell cycle and the engaged apoptotic pathway.

Four novel rhodium(III) complexes, [RhIII(QB1)Cl3(DMSO)] (RhN1), [RhIII(QB2)Cl3(CH3OH)]·CH3OH (RhN2), [RhIII(QB3)Cl3(CH3OH)]·CH3OH (RhS), and [RhIII(QB4)Cl3(DMSO)] (RhQ), bearing quinoline-benzopyran ligands (QB1-QB4) were synthesized and used to develop highly anticancer therapeutic and fluorescence imaging agents. Compared with the QB1-QB4 ligands (IC50 > 89.2 ± 1.7 μM for A549/DDP), RhN1, RhN2, RhS and RhQ exhibit selective cytotoxicity against lung carcinoma cisplatin-resistant A549/DDP (A549CDDP) cancer cells, with IC50 values in the range of 0.08-2.7 μM. The fluorescent imaging agent RhQ with the more extended planar QB4 ligand exhibited high anticancer activity in A549CDDP cells and was found in the cell nucleus fraction, whereas RhS had no fluorescence properties. RhQ and RhS may trigger cell apoptosis by causing DNA damage and initiating the mitochondrial dysfunction pathway. Furthermore, RhQ has a higher antitumor efficacy (ca. 55.3%) than RhS (46.4%) and cisplatin (CDDP, 33.1%), and RhQ demonstrated significantly lower toxicity in vivo than CDDP, making it a promising Rh(III)-based anticancer therapeutic and fluorescence imaging agent.

Abstract
Imidazole and tetrazole derivatives are widely used as clinical drugs since they possess a variety of pharmaceutical function. Zinc and iron are essential trace elements of the human body, with less toxicity and good biocompatibility. In this paper, two new essential metal mononuclear complexes [M(H2tmidc)2(H2O)2]·2H2O (M = Zn (1), Fe (2)) were synthesized through the reaction of 2-((1H-tetrazol-1-yl)methylene)-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid (H3tmidc) and ZnSO4·7H2O or FeSO4·7H2O. The crystal structures were determined by means of the X-ray single crystal diffraction technique. Results from fluorescence investigations show that both complexes could interact with BSA as well as HSA through the static quenching mechanism. van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds play important roles in the interaction of complexes and BSA/HSA since both ΔH and ΔS values are negative. The results of molecular docking are consistent with those in experimental studies. Furthermore, the anticancer activity of H3tmidc and both complexes against Eca-109 were preliminarily evaluated and the results show that both complexes have better anticancer activity than the corresponding ligand H3tmidc.

Abstract
We investigated the anti-cancer activity of [Ag(μ-dicl)]n 1 and [AgH(nif)2] 2 complexes against human cancer cell lines (MCF-7, HT-29, and HepG2) and mouse fibroblast (3T3-L1) cell line. Anti-proliferative activity was monitored by XTT cell viability and LDH leakage assays. Cell death mode was evaluated by multi-caspase activity, annexin V cytofluorimetric, MMP, cell cycle arrest, and ROS generation assays. Antioxidant capacity was evaluated on SOD, GPx, GR, and CAT enzymes. The XTT and LDH assay results showed that both complexes exhibited strong cytotoxicity against the tested cancer cell lines. The apoptotic mechanisms of the complexes were demonstrated by loss of MMP and increase in phosphatidylserine translocation, sub-G1 phase, and multi-caspase activity. Besides, both complexes induced the oxidative stress in MCF-7 cells by decreasing the activity of GPx, GR, and CAT enzymes. In conclusion, both Ag(I) complexes, especially 1, warrant for further in vivo evaluation as a new alternative in cancer treatment.HighlightsAg(I) complexes inhibited cell proliferation and induced LDH leakage in human cancer cell lines.Ag(I) complexes induced apoptosis through MMP disruption and ROS generation.Ag(I) complexes mimicked the multi-caspase activity.Ag(I) complexes increased the accumulation of sub-G1 phase.Ag(I) complexes inhibited the activity of antioxidant system enzymes.

Abstract
Anticancer is a high priority research area for scientists as cancer is one of the leading causes of death globally. It is pertinent to mention here that conventional anticancer drugs such as methotrexate, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, doxorubicin, cisplatin, etc. are not much efficient for the treatment of different types of cancer; also these suffer from serious side effects leading to therapy failure. A large variety of cancerrelated receptors such as carbonic anhydrase, tyrosine kinase, topoisomerase, protein kinase, histone deacetylase, etc. have been identified which can be targeted by anticancer drugs. Heterocycles like oxadiazole, thiazole, thiadiazole, indole, pyridine, pyrimidine, benzimidazole, etc. play a pivotal role in modern medicinal chemistry because they have a broad spectrum of pharmacological activities including prominent anticancer activity. Therefore, it was considered significant to explore heterocyclic compounds reported in recent most literature which can bind effectively with the cancer-related receptors. This will not only provide a targeted approach to deal with cancer but also the safety profile of the drugs can be further improved. The information provided in this manuscript may be found useful for the design and development of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
Recently, rhodium complexes have received intensive attentions due to their tunable chemical and biological properties as well as attractive antitumor activity. In this work, two imidazole triphenylamino rhodium complexes [Rh(ppy)2L1]PF6 (Rh1) and [Rh(ppy)2L2]PF6 (Rh2) (ppy = 2-phenylpyridine, L1 = 4-(1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)-N,N-diphenylaniline, L2 = N-(4-(1H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthrolin-2-yl)phenyl)-4-methyl-N-(p-tolyl)aniline) have been synthesized and characterized. Both complexes display stronger anticancer activity against a various of cancer cells than cisplatin and they can effectively localize to mitochondria. Further mechanism studies show that Rh1 induce caspase-dependent apoptosis through mitochondrial damage, down-regulate the expression of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2)/Bcl2-associated x (Bax) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) elevation. Our work provides a strategy for the construction of highly effective anticancer agents targeting mitochondrial metabolism through rational modification of rhodium complexes.

Abstract
New Zn(ii), Cd(ii) and Hg(ii) complexes of saccharinate (sac) and 2,6-bis(2-benzimidazolyl)pyridine (bzimpy), [Zn(bzimpy)2](sac)2·2H2O (Zn), [Cd(sac)2(bzimpy)] (Cd) and [Hg(sac)2(bzimpy)] (Hg), were prepared and fully characterized by spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallography. In vitro anticancer screening in A549 (lung), MCF-7 (breast) and HT29 (colon) cell lines showed that Zn was highly cytotoxic against A549 and MCF-7 cells with IC50 values of 1.74 ± 0.06 and 3.15 ± 0.10 μM, respectively, and Hg demonstrated potent cytotoxic activity in MCF-7 cells (8.61 ± 0.98 μM), while Cd and bzimpy exhibited moderate growth inhibitory activities in all of the cell lines. In addition, they showed significantly lower toxicity towards normal human breast epithelial MCF10A cells. Moreover, the complexes exhibited significantly high nuclease activity towards plasmid DNA and their interactions with DNA were assessed by gel electrophoresis and DNA docking. Zn and Hg induced G0/G1 cell arrest and apoptotic cell death detected via typical DNA condensation/fragmentation, annexin V staining and caspase 3/7 activity in A549 and MCF-7 cells. These complexes further caused depolarization of mitochondria and oxidative damage of genomic DNA following excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Abstract
A series of half-sandwich structural iridium(III) phenanthroline (Phen) complexes with halide ions (Cl- , Br- , I- ) and pyridine leaving groups ([(η5 -CpX )Ir(Phen)Z](PF6 )n , Cpx : electron-rich cyclopentadienyl group, Z: leaving group) have been prepared. Target complexes, especially the Cpxbiph (biphenyl-substituted cyclopentadienyl)-based one, showed favourable anticancer activity against human lung cancer (A549) cells; the best one (Ir8) was almost five times that of cisplatin under the same conditions. Compared with complexes involving halide ion leaving groups, the pyridine-based one did not display hydrolysis but effectively caused lysosomal damage, leading to accumulation in the cytosol, inducing an increase in the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species and apoptosis; this indicated an anticancer mechanism of oxidation. Additionally, these complexes could bind to serum albumin through a static quenching mechanism. The data highlight the potential value of half-sandwich iridium(III) phenanthroline complexes as anticancer drugs.

Abstract
A new mononuclear Zn(II) complex, [Zn(Me2bpy)3](PF6)2·DMF (Me2bpy = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine), has been synthesized and fully characterized. Binding studies of the Zn(II) complex with fish sperm DNA (FS-DNA) and bovine serum albumine (BSA) were investigated using cyclic voltammetry, UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopies. The results showed that the majority of the interaction modes between the Zn(II) complex and DNA is a combination of the electrostatic and minor groove bindings, and the microenvironment of three aromatic amino acids residues is changed due to the interaction of the Zn(II) complex with BSA. In vitro cytotoxicity studies of the Zn(II) complex and its nanocomplex against three human carcinoma cell lines (MCF-7, A-549, and HT-29) using an MTT assay indicated that the cytotoxicity of both compounds against HT-29 and MCF-7 is higher than A-549. Moreover, the results clearly demonstrated that the aqueous colloid of the Zn(II) nanocomplex is more effective than the complex solution against HT-29 and MCF-7 cells under the same experimental conditions. The microscopic analyses of the cancer cells showed that the Zn(II) complex apparently induces the cell apoptosis. The interactions of the Zn(II) complex with DNA and BSA were also modeled using molecular docking. The results are in good agreement with the experimental findings.

Abstract
A novel tryptophan-derived Schiff base ligand (potassium (E)-2-((4-chloro-3-nitrobenzylidene)amino)-3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propanoate) and a series of its transition metal complexes of the types [ML2] and [ML(1,10-phen)2]Cl where M = Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) were prepared. They were analyzed by various spectral and physicochemical studies. The XRD data were also used to determine the average lattice parameters and crystalline size of the compounds. All the synthesized compounds were tested against a series of five bacterial and fungal strains. The obtained results showed that the biological activity of free ligand was increased on complexation. PASS online software predicts the various biological activities of ligand such as enzyme inhibitor, antiviral, analgesic and antituberculosis. The in silico theoretical prediction of synthesized compounds is also deliberated by Swiss ADME predictor which gives the properties of molecular hydrophobicity (log P), topological polar surface area (TPSA) and oral bioavailability score. The binding energy of the docked molecule with macromolecules 1BNA and 3EQM is also determined by using Hex 8.0 software. The ligand has the least binding energy score which signifies that the potential of binding is greater in the receptor. Moreover, the interactions of complexes with DNA have been explored by electronic absorption titration, fluorescence emission titration, viscosity measurements and gel electrophoresis.

Abstract
A novel series of amino acids conjugated quinazolinone-Schiff's bases were synthesized and screened for their in vitro anticancer activity and validated by molecular docking and DNA binding studies. In the present investigations, compounds 32, 33, 34, 41, 42 and 43 showed most potent anticancer activity against tested cancer cell lines and DNA binding study using methyl green comparing to doxorubicin and ethidium bromide as a positive control respectively. The structure-activity relationship (SAR) revealed that the tryptophan and phenylalanine derived electron donating groups (OH and OCH3) favored DNA binding studies and anticancer activity whereas; electron withdrawing groups (Cl, NO2, and F) showed least anticancer activity. The molecular docking study, binding interactions of the most active compounds 33, 34, 42 and 43 stacked with A-T rich regions of the DNA minor groove by surface binding interactions were confirmed.
