| Abstract: |
The water-soluble RuIII maltolato, ethylmaltolato, and pyridonato complexes, Ru(O-O′)3 (O-O′ = ma (1a), etma (1b), pyd (2a)), were synthesized (Hma = 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone, Hetma = 2-ethyl-3-hydroxy-4-pyrone, Hpyd = 3-hydroxy-1,2-dimethyl-4-pyridone). The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, NMR and IR spectroscopies, MS, solution conductivity, and cyclic voltammetry, and in the case of Ru(ma)3, by X-ray crystallography, which revealed a met configuration. The paramagnetic 1H NMR resonances of 1a, 1b, and 2a were assigned using 2D methods (¹H COSY and ¹H-13C HMQC) and variable-temperature ¹H NMR data and showed that la and lb exist in aqueous solution predominantly as a mer isomer, while 2a is a mixture of mer and fac isomers. Although a 13C NMR spectrum could not be measured directly for la, a partial 13C spectrum was generated from the ¹H-13C HMQC spectrum. Complexes 1a and 1b were tested for anti-proliferatory activity against the human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-435S and gave IC50 values of 140 and 90 μM, respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
