Synthesis, characterization, antiproliferative activity and DNA binding calculation of substituted-phenyl-terpyridine copper(II) nitrate complexes.

Ten 4'- (R-phenyl) -2,2': 6', 2' - terpyridine ligands (R = hydrogen (L1), hydroxyl (L2), methoxyl (L3), methylsulfonyl (L4), methyl (L5), phenyl (L6), fluoro (L7), chloro (L8), bromo (L9), and iodo (L10)) were synthesized. The reaction of these ligands with copper(II) nitrate led to complexes 1-10. The characterization of 1-10 was carried out by means of mass spectrometry, elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy and X-ray single crystal diffraction.

Silver complexes with substituted terpyridines as promising anticancer metallodrugs and their crystal structure, photoluminescence, and DNA interactions.

Six silver hexafluoroantimonate complexes (1-6) with 4'-(4'-substituted-phenyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine compounds bearing hydrogen (L1), methyl (L2), methylsulfonyl (L3), chloro (L4), bromo (L5) and iodo (L6) were prepared and characterized by H NMR, C NMR, IR, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. All the compounds exhibit interesting photoluminescence properties in the solid state and solution. data demonstrate that all of them show higher antiproliferative activities than cisplatin against three human carcinoma cell lines, A549, Eca-109 and MCF-7.
