RESUMEN
A series of novel bis-imidazolium salts was synthesized, characterized, and evaluated in vitro against a panel of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. Two imidazolium cores were connected with alkyl chains of varying lengths to develop a structure activity relationship (SAR). Increasing the length of the connecting alkyl chain was shown to correlate to an increase in the anti-proliferative activity. The National Cancer Institute's NCI-60 human tumor cell line screen confirmed this trend. The compound containing a decyl linker chain, 10, was chosen for further in vivo toxicity studies with C578BL/6 mice. The compound was well tolerated by the mice and all of the animals survived and gained weight over the course of the study.

Imidazolium salts have shown great promise as anticancer materials. A new imidazolium salt (TPP1), with a triphenylphosphonium substituent, has been synthesized and evaluated for in vitro and in vivo cytotoxicity against bladder cancer. TPP1 was determined to have a GI50 ranging from 200 to 250⯵M over a period of 1â¯h and the ability to effectively inhibit bladder cancer. TPP1 induces apoptosis, and it appears to act as a direct mitochondrial toxin. TPP1 was applied intravesically to a bladder cancer mouse model based on the carcinogen N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl)nitrosamine (BBN). Cancer selectivity of TPP1 was demonstrated, as BBN-induced tumors exhibited apoptosis but normal adjacent urothelium did not. These results suggest that TPP1 may be a promising intravesical agent for the treatment of bladder cancer.

Removal of chloride from CoCl2 with TlPF6 in acetonitrile, followed by addition of excess nitrosobenzene, yielded the eight-coordinate cobalt(II) complex salt [Co{Ph(O)NN(O)Ph}4](PF6)2, shown by single-crystal X-ray analysis to have a distorted tetragonal geometry. The analogous treatment of the bipyridyl complex Co(bpy)Cl2 yielded the mixed-ligand cobalt(II) complex salt [Co(bpy){Ph(O)NN(O)Ph}2](PF6)2, whose single-crystal X-ray structure displays a trigonal prismatic geometry, similar to that of the iron(II) cation in the previously known complex salt [Fe{Ph(O)NN(O)Ph}3](FeCl4)2. The use of TlPF6 to generate solvated metal complex cations from chloride salts or chlorido complexes, followed by the addition of nitrosobenzene, is shown to be a useful synthetic strategy for the preparation of azodioxide complex cations with the noncoordinating, diamagnetic PF6 - counteranion. Coordination number appears to be more important than d electron count in determining the geometry and metal-ligand bond distances of diphenylazodioxide complexes.
RESUMEN
Three isostructural coordination networks of Ce, Pr, and Nd nitrate with 4,4'-bi-pyridine N,N'-dioxide (bpydo) are reported, namely poly[[tris-(nitrato-κ(2) O,O')cerium(III)]-bis-(µ2-4,4'-bi-pyridine N,N'-dioxide-κ(2) N:N')], [Ce(NO3)3(C10H8N2O2)2], poly[[tris-(nitrato-κ(2) O,O')praeseodymium(III)]-bis-(µ2-4,4'-bi-pyridine N,N'-dioxide-κ(2) N:N')], [Pr(NO3)3(C10H8N2O2)2], and poly[[tris(nitrato-κ(2) O,O')neodymium(III)]-bis-(µ2-4,4'-bi-pyridine N,N'-dioxide-κ(2) N:N'], [Nd(NO3)3(C10H8N2O2)2]. All three compounds are isostructural to the previously reported La analogue. The asymmetric unit of [Ln(NO3)3(µ2-bpydo)2] contains one lanthanide cation, two bpydo ligands, and three nitrate anions. Both bpydo ligands act as end-to-end µ2-bridges and display nearly ideal cis and gauche conformations, respectively. The bpydo ligands link the ten-coordinate Ln (III) cations, forming inter-digitating 4(4) grid-like layers extending parallel to (-101), where inter-digitation of layers is promoted by C-Hâ¯O inter-actions between nitrate anions and bpydo ligands. The inter-digitated layers are linked to sets of neighboring layers via further C-Hâ¯O and π-π inter-actions.
