Cancer, a lethal ailment, possesses a multitude of therapeutic alternatives to combat its presence, metal complexes have emerged as significant classes of medicinal compounds, exhibiting considerable biological efficacy, especially as anticancer agents. The utilization of cis-platin in the treatment of various cancer types, including breast cancer, has served as inspiration to devise novel nanostructured metal complexes for breast cancer therapy. Notably, homo- and hetero-octahedral bimetallic complexes of an innovative multifunctional ether ligand (comprising Mn(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), Hg(II), and Ag(I) ions) have been synthesized.

A new isatin-3-thiosemicarbazone derivative 4 was synthesized by two different methods based on hydrazone derivatives 2 and 3. Additionally, the chelation of thiosemicarbazone with copper (II) and zinc (II) forms a monobasic tridentate (ONS) complex with two five-member rings and a tetrahedral geometry structure.

The complexes adopt distorted octahedral geometry. The ESR spectra of the solid copper(II) complexes are characteristic to d(9) configuration and have an axial symmetry type of a d(x (2)-y (2)) ground state.

Reaction of Cr(III), Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) ion with 2,4-dihydrazino-thioamido-1-ethoxybutane led to the formation of mono and binuclear complexes. These complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, UV-Vis spectra, magnetic moments, molar conductances, (1)H NMR and mass spectra (ligand and its Zn(II) complex), thermal analyses (DTA and TGA) and ESR measurements. The IR data suggest the involvement of sulfur and azomethane nitrogen atoms in coordination to the central metal ion .

The IR spectral data show that, the ligand behaves as a neutral bidentate type (15 and 16), monobasic bidentate type (6), or monobasic tridentate type (5, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, 17-21) or dibasic tridentate type 2-4, 9 and 12 towards the metal ion. Molar conductances in DMF solution indicate that, the complexes are non-electrolytes.
