AI Article Synopsis

  • Four new organoantimony(V) complexes were created using (±)-mandelic acid and various phenyl groups (e.g., phenyl, 4-fluorophenyl).
  • These complexes showed quick and low micromolar cytotoxic effects on different epithelial tumor cells in lab tests.
  • They also demonstrated effective binding to CT-DNA, indicating potential for cancer treatment applications.

Article Abstract

Four novel tetranuclear organoantimony(V) complexes [R3SbL]4, in which LH = (±)-mandelic acid and R = phenyl (1), 4-fluorophenyl (2), 3-fluorophenyl (3), 3,4,5-trifluorophenyl (4), were synthesized and characterized. The complexes displayed rapid, low micromolar in vitro cytotoxicity against a range of epithelial tumour cells and efficient CT-DNA binding.
