ABSTRACT


Ru(II)BT have been synthesized by the reaction between substituted bromobenzal thiosemicarbazones and precursors of ruthenium metal complexes, [RuHCl(CO)(EPh3)3] (where E = P/As). The bromobenzal thiosemicarbazones and Ru(II)BT was characterized by analytical and spectroscopic techniques. It confirms the coordination of the thiosemicarbazone ligands and suggest the octahedral geometry of the complexes. The Ru(II)BT is comprised of a metal centre with bidentate ligands. The stabilization of free radicals with Ru(II)BT was studied. The ligand and Ru(II)BT have significant anticancer activity on MCF-7 cancer cells.


Keywords: Ru(II), Anticancer, Antioxidant, Bromobenzal thiosemicarbazones.
