X-ray and spectroscopic characterisation of cobalt(III) and nickel(II) complexes with 2-(2-pyridyl)iminotetrahydro-1,3-thiazine hydrochloride·water (1/2) (PyTzHCl·2H2O) in the solid state and study of its interaction with cobalt(II) and nickel(II) in aqueous solution

Synthesis, Characterization and Antiproliferative Evaluation of Pt(II) and Pd(II) Complexes with a Thiazine-Pyridine Derivative Ligand

Chemical, pharmacological, and clinical research on anticancer coordination complexes has led to noteworthy anticancer drugs such as cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin. Although these compounds are effective chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of different tumors, they are associated with high toxicity and numerous side effects. Several studies have shown that the range of platinum complexes with antitumor activity is not limited to structural analogs of cisplatin. Therefore, the development of convenient anticancer drugs that can be effectively used for the treatment of human tumors has become the main goal of most research groups in this field. In this sense, active platinum complexes without NH groups, transplatinum complexes, multinuclear complexes, cationic complexes, and several classes of palladium(II) complexes have emerged. Herein, the synthesis and characterization of two Pt(II) or Pd(II) complexes with PyTz (2-(2-pyridyl)iminotetrahydro-1,3-thiazine), a thiazine derivative ligand, with the formula [MCl₂(PyTz)]·C₂H₆O (M = Pt(II) or Pd(II)) were reported. The potential anticancer ability of both complexes was evaluated in epithelial cervix carcinoma HeLa, human ovary adenocarcinoma SK-OV-3, human histiocytic lymphoma U-937, and human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cell lines. Interestingly, the Pt(II) complex showed great cytotoxic potential against all tumor cell lines tested, whereas the Pd(II) complex displayed slight antitumor actions.

Charge-assisted hydrogen bond and nitrile⋯nitrile interaction directed supramolecular associations in Cu(ii) and Mn(ii) coordination complexes: anticancer, hematotoxicity and theoretical studies

Charge-assisted H-bonds and nitrile⋯nitrile interactions directed assemblies in Cu(ii) and Mn(ii) complexes have been analyzed by MEP surface and NCI plot index. Anticancer activities and hematotoxictiy have been investigated.
