| Abstract | A novel series of organometallic antitumour agents based on RuII and OsII complexes containing N-substituted 2-pyridinecarbothioamides (PCAs) has been synthesized and characterized. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of organometallic anticancer compounds with an S,N-bidentate ligand system. While the ligands showed activity as gastric mucosal protectants and low acute toxicity in vivo (J. Med. Chem., 1990, 33, 327–336), coordination leads to highly antiproliferative metallodrugs, depending on lipophilicity and steric demand, in colon carcinoma and non-small lung cancer cell lines with intrinsic chemoresistances. The most lipophilic and smallest congeners are the most effective with IC50 values in the low micromolar range. This new family of potential metallodrugs features exceptional stability in hydrochloric acid (60 mM), characterized by complete suppression of hydrolysis and low reactivity towards biological nucleophiles. Therefore, their unexpected aqueous chemistry renders this family of antiproliferative agents suitable for oral administration. An unprecedented feature is their ability to form transient thioketone-bridged dimers in aqueous solution upon hydrolysis, which is believed to minimize deactivation by biological nucleophiles. However, the biological effect seems to be caused by the monomer as observed with crystallographic studies of the nucleosome core particle (NCP), which revealed that [chlorido(η6-p-cymene)(N-phenyl-2-pyridinecarbothioamide)osmium(II)] chloride and [chlorido(η6-p-cymene)(N-fluorophenyl-2-pyridinecarbothioamide)osmium(II)] chloride react at two types of binding sites on the histone proteins. The adducts form at histidine side chains located on the nucleosome surface and the inner cleft of the nucleosome in the midst of an extensive histone–histone interface, suggesting interference with chromatin activity as a possible mode of action of these compounds. Additionally, ligand-based S → O exchange allows for a potential dual-mode of action by targeting DNA (J. Med. Chem., 2009, 52, 7753–7764). The quantitative estimates of drug-likeness (QED) for this family of compounds revealed a similar drug-likeness compared to erlotinib, tamoxifen, imatinib and sorafenib. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
