Abstract
A series of symmetric and unsymmetrical benzimidazolium-based N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) precursors (1a-i) and their silver complexes (2a-i) have been synthesized. The Ag(I)–NHC complexes were characterized by 1H, 13C{1H} NMR, FTIR, LC/MS-QTOF, and elemental analysis. Anticancer and cytotoxic activity of all Ag(I)–NHC complexes were tested against healthy fibroblast cell line (L929), breast cancer cell line (MCF-7), and neuroblastoma cell line (SH-SY5Y) by MTS [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium] assay. The 2b, 2c, 2e, 2g, 2h, and 2i complexes showed higher cytotoxicity than cisplatin against SH-SY5Y and MCF-7 and lower cytotoxic activity against L929 cell lines. Because of their high cytotoxic activity against cancer cells and low cytotoxicity against healthy fibroblast cell lines, the 2b, 2c, 2e, 2g, 2h, and 2i are expected to be new lead compounds. In addition, molecular docking studies were performed to explore the binding interactions of silver complexes with the enzyme to explore new anticancer compounds. Furthermore, ADME properties of all complexes were predicted to explore lead-like characteristics and may be a potential drug candidate for cancer treatment.

Abstract
In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in the study of Ag(I) coordination compounds as potent antibacterial and anticancer agents. Herein, a series of Ag(I) complexes bearing phosphines and heterocyclic thioamide ligands with highly electronegative NH2- and CF3-group substituents, i.e. [AgCl(atdztH)(xantphos)] (1), [Ag(μ-atdztH)(DPEphos)]2(NO3)2 (2), [Ag(atdzt)(PPh3)3] (3), [Ag(μ-atdzt)(DPEphos)]2 (4), and [Ag(μ-mtft)(DPEphos)]2 (5), where atdztH = 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol, mtftH = 4-methyl-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1,2,4-triazol-3-thiol, xantphos = 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene, and DPEphos = bis(2-diphenylphosphino-phenyl)ether, were synthesized, and their in vitro antibacterial and anticancer properties were evaluated. Complexes 1-4 bearing the NH2-substituted thioamide exhibited moderate-to-high activity against S. aureus, B. subtilis, B. cereus and E. coli bacterial strains. A high antiproliferative activity was also observed for 1-3 against SKOV-3, Hup-T3, DMS114 and PC3 cancer cell lines (IC50 = 4.0-11.7 μM), as well as some degree of selectivity against MRC-5 normal cells. Interestingly, 5 bearing the CF3-substituted thioamide is completely inactive in all bioactivity studies. Binding of 1-3 to drug-carrier proteins BSA and HSA is reasonably strong for their uptake and subsequent release to possible target sites. The three complexes show a significant in vitro antioxidant ability for scavenging free radicals, suggesting likely implication of this property in the mechanism of their bioactivity, but a low potential to destroy the double-strand structure of CT-DNA by intercalation. Complementary insights into possible bioactivity mechanisms were provided by molecular docking calculations, exploring the ability of complexes to bind to bacterial DNA gyrase, and to the overexpressed in the aforementioned cancer cells Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 1, affecting their functionalities.

Abstract
A series of heteroleptic Ag(I) complexes bearing 4,6-dimethyl-2-pyrimidinethiol (dmp2SH), i.e., [AgCl(dmp2SH)(PPh3)2] (1), [Ag(dmp2SH)(PPh3)2]NO3 (2), [Ag(dmp2SΗ)(xantphos)]NO3 (3), [Ag(μ-dmp2S)(PPh3)]2 (4), [Ag(dmp2S)(xantphos)] (5), [Ag(μ-dmp2S)(DPEphos)]2 (6) (xantphos = 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene and DPEPhos = bis[(2-diphenylphosphino)phenyl]ether) were synthesized. The complexes display systematic variation of particular structural characteristics which were proved to have a significant impact on their in vitro cytotoxicity and antimicrobial properties. A moderate-to-high potential for bacteria growth inhibition was observed for all complexes, with 2, 3 and 5 being particularly effective against Gram-(+) bacteria (IC50 = 1.6-4.5 μM). The three complexes exhibit high in vitro cytotoxicity against HeLa and MCF-7 cancer cells (IC50 = 0.32-3.00 μΜ), suggesting the importance of coordination unsaturation and cationic charge for effective bioactivity. A very low cytotoxicity against HDFa normal cells was observed, revealing a high degree of selectivity (selectivity index ~10) and, hence, biocompatibility. Fluorescence microscopy using 2 showed effective targeting on the membrane of the HeLa cancer cells, subsequently inducing cell death. Binding of the complexes to serum albumin proteins is reasonably strong for potential uptake and subsequent release to target sites. A moderate in vitro antioxidant capacity for free radicals scavenging was observed and a low potential to destroy the double-strand structure of calf-thymus DNA by intercalation, suggesting likely implication of these properties in the bioactivity mechanisms of these complexes. Further insight into possible mechanisms of bioactivity was obtained by molecular modeling calculations, by exploring their ability to act as potential inhibitors of DNA-gyrase, human estrogen receptor alpha, human cyclin-dependent kinase 6, and human papillomavirus E6 oncoprotein.
