摘要

The preparation, structural characterization, and chemical behavior in aqueous solution of a series of new Ru[9]aneS₃ half-sandwich complexes of the type [Ru([9]aneS₃)Cl(NN)][CF₃SO₃] and [Ru([9]aneS₃)(dmso-S)(NN)][CF₃SO₃]₂ (5–15, NN = substituted bpy or 2 × 1-methylimidazole) are described. The X-ray structures of [Ru([9]aneS₃)Cl(3,3′-H₂dcbpy)][CF₃SO₃] (9) (3,3′-H₂dcbpy = 3,3′-dicarboxy-2,2′-bipyridine), [Ru([9]aneS₃)Cl(4,4′-dmobpy)][CF₃SO₃] (13) (4,4′-dmobpy = 4,4′-dimethoxy-2,2′-bipyridine), and [Ru([9]aneS₃)Cl(1-MeIm)₂][CF₃SO₃] (15) (1-MeIm = 1-methylimidazole) were also determined. The new compounds are structurally similar to anticancer-active organometallic half-sandwich complexes of formula [Ru(η⁶-arene)Cl(NN)][PF₆]. Three chloro compounds (5, 9, 15) were tested in vitro for cytotoxic activity against two human cancer cell lines in comparison with the previously described [Ru([9]aneS₃)Cl(en)][CF₃SO₃] (1, en = ethylenediamine), [Ru([9]aneS₃)Cl(bpy)][CF₃SO₃] (2), and with their common dmso precursor [Ru([9]aneS₃)Cl(dmso-S)₂][CF₃SO₃] (3). Only the ethylenediamine complex 1 showed some antiproliferative activity, ca. one order of magnitude lower than the reference organometallic half-sandwich compound RM175 that contains biphenyl instead of [9]aneS₃. This compound was further tested against a panel of human cancer cell lines (including one resistant to cisplatin).
