A novel dinuclear cobalt(III) complex with the condensation product of 2-acetylpyridine and malonic acid dihydrazide, N',N'(2)-bis[(1E)-1-(2-pyridyl)ethylidene]propanedihydrazide was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopy (NMR and infrared), and X-ray crystal analysis. The complex showed a moderate activity towards Artemia salina. The highest cytotoxic potential of the complex was observed on the epithelial breast cancer (MDA-361) cell line. The investigated complex induced apoptosis, the early apoptotic cells comprising 28.18%, compared to 5.64% of control cells in the same phase. The interaction of the complex with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was monitored by blue shift and hyperchromism in the UV-vis spectra. The observed intrinsic binding constant (K(b)=4.2×10(5)M(-1)) together with structural analysis of the complex indicate the groove binding.

Terphenylgermanium Ar*Ge [Ar*=CH(2,6-Trip), Trip=2,4,6-CHiPr] was found to act as a novel μ-Ge-bis(hexahapto-Trip) bridging ligand. Deprotonated terphenyl germanium trihydride [Li(thf)][Ar*GeH] (1) undergoes reductive elimination and transfer of hydrogen in reaction with dimeric [(COD)RhCl] to yield the dinuclear complex [Ar*GeRh(COE)RhCl(COD)] (2). Subsequent chloride abstraction from compound 2 using Na[BAr ] or Li[Al(OBu)] results in the cationic complexes [Ar*GeRh(COE)Rh(COD)][WCA] (3) {WCA: [BAr ] (Ar=CH-3,5-(CF)), [Al(OBu)]}.

A new Ni (II) metal-organic frameworks with the formula [Ni(HL)(HO)]∙3HO (1) and a novel phenoxo-O bridged rare-earth dinuclear Schiff base complex with the formula [La(dbm)L·CHOH] (2), where the HL is the partial deprotonated of the organic ligand HL, and HL is a bis-Schiff foundation ligand (HL = 4,6-dioxo-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-1,3,5-triazine-2-carboxylic acid, HL = N, N'-bis (2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene) -propane-1,2-diamine, Hdbm = dibenzoylmethane), have been successfully generated under the solvothermal condition. The targeted product sample of 1 and 2 has been fully characterized by single-crystal X-ray data, elemental analysis, FT-IR, powder X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis. Furthermore, fluorescence performance testing of the complexes revealed that in complex 1, HL forms a rigid chain through coordination with Ni ions and further forms a highly rigid three-dimensional framework within the hydrogen bond network, resulting in fluorescence enhancement of up to 13.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on enhancing metal center cooperation through tailored ligand design for improved multimetallic catalysis.
- A bimetallic Pd NHC/pyridine complex was synthesized using a novel ligand featuring an ethynylbenzene framework, allowing the creation of more complex dinuclear complexes.
- The dinuclear complexes exhibited superior catalytic performance, particularly those with acetylene linkers, compared to mononuclear and other dinuclear complexes, which was evidenced by better results in specific chemical reactions.

The coordination sphere and steric variations in iron catalysts present a fascinating strategy for adjusting monomer regio- and stereoselective enchainment, leading to the development of novel polymer structures in isoprene polymerization. This study investigates a range of iron complexes with variations in the coordination spheres (bidentate and tridentate) and steric/electronic properties of side arms to evaluate their impact on isoprene polymerization. X-ray analysis revealed that the tridentate Fe-NMe2 complex has a dinuclear structure with a -O bridge, where each iron center is monoligated in an octahedral geometry.

Four new mononuclear gold (I) compounds of the type [AuL{κC-2-CHP(S)Ph}] {L = PTA (1), PPh (2), PPh(CH-3-SONa) (3), and PPh(2-py) (4)} were prepared by scission of the dinuclear compound [Au{μ-2-CHP(S)Ph}] by L or via a transmetalation reaction using the organotin reagent 2-MeSnCHP(S)Ph and a suitable gold halide precursor. The cytotoxic potential of complexes 1-4 was evaluated against four human cancer cell lines of diverse cellular origin: cervical (HeLa), prostate (PC-3), non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma (A549), and fibrosarcoma (HT-1080). The in vitro cytotoxicity results showed that 1 demonstrated exceptional anticancer activity with IC values ranging from 0.
