In this paper, the title compound was synthesized from N-benzoyl-N′,N′-dibenzylthiourea ligand and potassium tetrachloroplatinate(II), and its interaction with human (HSA) and bovine (BSA) serum albumin was evaluated. Also, the crystal structure was determined from single-crystal X‐ray diffraction, confirming that the platinum atom is coordinated with two chelated N-benzoyl-N′,N′-dibenzylthiourea ligands in a d...
Ru(II)-thymine complex [Ru(PPh3)2(Thy)(bipy)]PF6 (where PPh3 = triphenylphosphine, Thy = thyminate and bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine) is a potent cytotoxic agent with ability to bind to DNA, inducing caspase-mediated apoptosis in leukemia cells. In this study, we investigated the mechanism underlying the cell death induction by Ru(II)-thymine complex in human colon carcinoma HCT116 cells, as well as its effect in xeno...
Ruthenium(II) complexes with 6-methyl-2-thiouracil cis-[Ru(6m2tu)2(PPh3)2] (1) and [Ru(6m2tu)2(dppb)] (2) (where PPh3 = triphenylphosphine; dppb = 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane; and 6m2tu = 6-methyl-2-thiouracil) are potent cytotoxic agents and able to bind DNA. The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro cellular underlying mechanism and in vivo effectiveness of these ruthenium(II) complexes in human acu...
Two new Ru(II)-based complexes containing 2-thiouracil derivatives, known as 2-thiouracil (2TU) and 6-methyl-2-thiouracil (6m2TU), were synthesized using cis,trans-[RuCl2(PPh3)2(bipy)] as a precursor. The obtained compounds with a general formula trans-[Ru(2TU)(PPh3)2(bipy)]PF6 (1) and trans-[Ru(6m2TU)(PPh3)2(bipy)]PF6 (2) were characterized by analytical techniques such as NMR, UV–vis, and IR spectroscopies, e...
