Organotin Compound Derived from 3-Hydroxy-2-formylpyridine Semicarbazone: Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Antiproliferative Activity

The novel diphenyltin(IV) compound [Ph2(HyFoSc)Sn] (2), where H2HyFoSc (1) is 3-hydroxy-2-formylpyridine semicarbazone, was prepared and characterized by vibrational and NMR (1H, 13C) spectroscopy. The structure of [Ph2(HyFoSc)Sn] was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The doubly deprotonated ligand is coordinated to the tin atom through the enolic-oxygen, the azomethine-nitrogen, and phenolic-oxygen, and so acts as an anionic tridentate ligand with the ONO donors. Two carbon atoms complete the fivefold coordination at the tin(IV) center. Intermolecular hydrogen bonding, C–H → π, and π → π interactions combine to stabilize the crystal structure. Compounds 1 and 2 have been evaluated for antiproliferative activity in vitro against the cells of three human tumor cell lines: MCF-7 (human breast cancer cell line), T24 (bladder cancer cell line), A549 (nonsmall cell lung carcinoma), and a mouse fibroblast L-929 cancer cell line

Diorganotin Complexes of a Thiosemicarbazone, Synthesis: Properties, X-Ray Crystal Structure, and Antiproliferative Activity of Diorganotin Complexes

The synthesis and spectral characterization of novel diorganotin complexes with 3-hydroxypyridine-2-carbaldehyde thiosemicarbazone, HL(1), [SnMe2(L)] (2), [SnBu2(L)] (3), and [SnPh2(L)] (4) are reported. The single-crystal X-ray structure of complex [SnPh2(L)(DMSO)] (5) shows that the ligand is doubly deprotonated and is coordinated as tridentate ligand. The six coordination number is completed by two carbon atoms of phenyl groups. There are two similar monomers 5a (Sn1) and 5b (Sn51) in the asymmetric unit. The monomers 5a and 5b are linked through intermolecular hydrogen bonds of N–H–O and C–H–S type. C-H→, intermolecular interactions, intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds stabilize this structure and leads to aggregation and a supramolecular assembly. The IR and NMR (1H, 13C and 119Sn) spectroscopic data of the complexes are reported. The in vitro cytotoxic activity has been evaluated against the cells of three human cancer cell lines: MCF-7 (human breast cancer cell line), T-24 (bladder cancer cell line), A-549 (nonsmall cell lung carcinoma) and a mouse L-929 (a fibroblast-like cell line cloned from strain L). Compounds 1, 3, and 4 were found active against all four cell lines. Selectivity was observed for complexes 3 and 4 which were found especially active against MCF-7 and T-24 cancer cell lines

Structure of bis(2-acetylpyridine 3-hexamethyleneiminylthiosemicarbazonato) palladium(II), a potential antitumor complex

The crystal structure of the potential antitumor complex bis(2-acetyppyridine 3-hexamethyleneiminylthiosemicarbazonato)palladium(II) has been solved. The palladium(H) atom is in a square planar environment surrounded by two cis nitrogen atoms and two cis sulfur atoms. The ligands are not equivalent, one being tridentate with (N,N,S) donation, the other being monodentate using only the sulfur atom to coordinate to the metal. The tridentate ligand shows a Z, E, Z configuration while the monodentate ligand shows an E, E, Z. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds stabilize the structure, while the crystal packing is determined by Pd-C, Pd-?, C-H-? and ?-? interactions
