ABSTRACT
Two heteronuclear ruthenium(II)-platinum(II) complexes [Ru(bpy)2(BPIMBp)PtCl2]2+ (3) and [Ru(phen)2(BPIMBp)PtCl2]2+ (4), where bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, and BPIMBp = 1,4'-bis[(2-pyridin-2-yl)-1H-imidazol-1-ylmethyl]-1,1'-biphenyl, have been designed and synthesized from their mononuclear precursors [Ru(bpy)2(BPIMBp)]2+ (1) and [Ru(phen)2(BPIMBp)]2+ (2) as multitarget molecules for Alzheimer's disease (AD). The inclusion of the cis-PtCl2 moiety facilitates the covalent interaction of Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes with amyloid ß (Aß) peptide. These multifunctional complexes act as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), Aß aggregation, and Cu-induced oxidative stress and protect neuronal cells against Aß-toxicity. The study highlights the design of metal based anti-Alzheimer's disease (AD) systems.
