Abstract
Design, synthesis, and in vitro antitumor properties of Cu(I) and Ag(I) phosphane complexes supported by the anions of sterically hindered β-diketone ligands, 1,3-dimesitylpropane-1,3-dione (HLMes) and 1,3-bis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3-hydroxyprop-2-en-1-one (HLCF3) featuring trifluoromethyl or methyl groups on the phenyl moieties have been reported. In order to compare the biological effects of substituents on the phenyl moieties, the analogous copper(I) and silver(I) complexes of the anion of the parent 1,3-diphenylpropane-1,3-dione (HLPh) ligand were also synthesized and included in the study. In the syntheses of the Cu(I) and Ag(I) complexes, the phosphane coligands triphenylphosphine (PPh3) and 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) were used to stabilize silver and copper in the +1 oxidation state, preventing the metal ion reduction to Ag(0) or oxidation to Cu(II), respectively. X-ray crystal structures of HLCF3 and the metal adducts [Cu(LCF3)(PPh3)2] and [Ag(LPh)(PPh3)2] are also presented. The antitumor properties of both classes of metal complexes were evaluated against a series of human tumor cell lines derived from different solid tumors, by means of both 2D and 3D cell viability studies. They display noteworthy antitumor properties and are more potent than cisplatin in inhibiting cancer cell growth.

Abstract
In order to demonstrate the role of the fluorination and some solvents in the structural organization of the Ag(I) coordination polymers with β-diketonate ligands (R1C(O)CαHC(O)R2)- we synthesized a series of the compounds containing tfac- (R1 = CH3, R2 = CF3) and pfpac- (R1 = CH3, R2 = C2F5) anions. Solvent-free [Ag(L)]∞ (L = tfac 1, pfpac 2) compounds and the corresponding acetonitrile and toluene adducts have been characterized by elemental analysis and/or NMR, IR and single-crystal XRD. This series includes five new coordination polymers. Compound 1 is a 3D coordination framework based on Ag-Ochelate/bridge, Ag-Cα bonds, and argentophilic interactions. An increase in the fluorinated group leads to a chain coordination polymer 2 of an unusual structural organization. These chains can be represented as a "DNA-type", where two intertwined helices based on Ag-Ochelate and Ag-Cα bonds are connected through Ag-Obridge ones. Two structural types of chain coordination polymers, [Ag(tfac)(CH3CN)] and [Ag2(L)2(solvent)], have been revealed for the adducts. The latter structural type differs significantly from the previously studied toluene and acetonitrile adducts of fluorinated Ag(I) β-diketonates of the same stoichiometry. Thermal analysis in helium showed that both 1 and 2 decompose to metallic silver with the compound of pfpac-ligand being slightly more stable.
