Hydrogen bonding and anticancer properties of water-soluble chiral p-cymene Ru(II) compounds with amino-oxime ligands.

ABSTRACT: The investigation of the hydrogen-bonding effect on the aggregation tendency of ruthenium compounds [(η⁶-p-cymene)Ru(κNHR,κNOH)Cl]Cl (R = Ph (1a), Bn (1b)) and [(η⁶-p-cymene)Ru(κ²NH(2-pic),κNOH)][PF₆]₂ (1c), [(η⁶-p-cymene)Ru(κNHBn,κNO)Cl] (2b) and [(η⁶-p-cymene)Ru(κNBn,κ²NO)] (3b), has been performed by means of concentration dependence ¹H NMR chemical shifts and DOSY experiments. The synthesis and full characterization of new compounds 1c, [(η⁶-p-cymene)Ru(κNPh,κ²NO)] (3a) and 3b are also reported. The effect of the water soluble ruthenium complexes 1a-1c on cytotoxi
