A new Ru(II) complex [Ru(dmb) 2 (pdta)](ClO 4 ) 2 ( 1 ) (dmb = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine, pdta = 3-(pyridine-2-yl)-as-triazino [5,6-f]-acenaphthylene) was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis (EA), ES–MS, 1 H NMR, UV–Vis and CV. The DNA-binding properties of complex 1 were investigated by absorption titration, thermal denaturation , viscosity measurement and photoactivated cleavage. The DNA-binding constant was determined to be 2.37 ± 0.14 × 10 5 M −1 ( s = 1.90 ± 0.04) by electronic absorption titration, indicating that complex 1 interacts with DNA through intercalative mode. The redox peak potentials of this complex in CV were rationally assigned with the frontier molecular orbital stereographs resulting from the density functional theory (DFT) calculation. The photoactivated cleavage and cleavage mechanism of plasmid pBR322 DNA in the presence of complex 1 and various inhibitors were studied. The experiment for detecting the formation of singlet oxygen photo-sensitized by complex 1 was carried out, and the antioxidant activity of the Ru-complex and the ligand pdta against hydroxyl radical was also investigated.

Two ruthenium complexes containing a new ligand phipz (phipz = 2-(1,10-phenanthroline)-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]phenazine) were designed and synthesized. These complexes were found to inhibit the DNA supercoiled relaxation mediated by topoisomerase I (topo I), cleave DNA under irradiation and bind to calf thymus DNA through intercalative mode. Furthermore, complex 2 shows higher photocleavage activity, topo I inhibition activity and DNA affinity than complex 1 . Additionally, introduction of phenazine unit may be the reason that two complexes exhibit DNA ‘light switch’ behavior. The present work shows that two complexes might be potential as new DNA ‘light switches’, DNA photocleavers and topo I inhibitors.

Two ruthenium complexes containing a new phenanthroline-based ligand pai (pai = 2-(5-(1, 10- phenanthroline))-1H-acenaphtho[1′,2′:4,5]imidazole) were synthesized and characterized. Two ruthenium complexes were found to cleave DNA under irradiation, interact with CT-DNA by intercalation. Furthermore, DNA topoisomerase inhibition experiments indicated that complex 2 exhibited higher topoisomerase I inhibition activity (IC 50 = 10 μM) than complex 1 (IC 50 = 40 μM). Molecular modeling studies revealed that complex 2 stabilized Top1cc complex via π-π interaction and the formation of hydrogen bond. The cytotoxicity of complexes 1 and 2 against Eca-109 and A549 cells was also evaluate by MTT method, indicating that complex 2 exhibited good anticancer activity against Eca-109 cells (IC 50 = 17.23 ± 0.22 μM), but two ruthenium complexes displayed weak anticancer activity against A549 cells.

Abstract Two ruthenium complexes containing nitro-substituted ligand, [Ru(bpy) 2 (hnpip)](PF 6 ) 2 ( 1 ) and [Ru(phen) 2 (hnpip)](PF 6 ) 2 ( 2 ) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine; phen = 1,10-phenanthroline; hnpip = 2-(3-hydroxyl- 4-nitrophenyl)imidazo[4,5- f ][1,10-phenanthroline] were synthesized and characterized. DNA binding behaviors were studied by luminescent titration, UV-vis titration, FRET (FRET = Fluorescence resonance energy transfer) and molecular docking experiments. Complex 2 exhibited “light switch” effect upon addition of G-quadruplex DNA and displayed fluorescent selectivity towards G-quadruplex DNA over other DNAs in the presence of K 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ]. Fluorescence experiments, FRET experiments and molecular docking results indicated that the selectivity may be attributed to protection of nitro group from water, DNA affinity and the difference in DNA structures. Furthermore, both complexes were found to cleave DNA under irradiation by the formation of singlet oxygen. DNA topoisomerase inhibition experiments indicated that complex 2 exhibited higher topoisomerase I inhibition activity (IC 50 = 18 μM) than complex 1 (IC 50 = 50 μM). Docking studies revealed that complex 2 stabilized Top1cc complex via π–π interaction and the formation of hydrogen bond.

Two new ruthenium complexes containing a new polyaza ligand were found to inhibit the DNA supercoiled relaxation mediated by topoisomerase I (topo I), cleave DNA under irradiation and interact with CT-DNA by intercalation. Both complexes exhibited fast singlet oxygen generation rate, and DNA photocleavage reaction should be initiated by 1O2. Furthermore, complex 2 showed higher photocleavage activity, topo I inhibition activity, and DNA affinity than complex 1. This work shows that two complexes can act as DNA binders with high affinity and good DNA photocleavers. Furthermore, complex 2 can act as a good topo I inhibitor.

Ruthenium(II) complexes containing phenazine ring have attracted attention to design as ‘molecular light switches’. In this study, we synthesized two ruthenium complexes containing phenazine ring and studied their abilities to function as DNA intercalators, DNA ‘light switches’, DNA topo I inhibitors, DNA photocleavers and potential antitumor reagents. [Ru(bpy)2(mbipz)](PF6)2 (1) (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, mbipz = 2-(4′-methyl-bipyridine-4-yl)-1H-imidazo[4,5-b]phenazine) exhibited off–on type DNA ‘light swtich’ behavior. DNA binding modes of the two complexes were determined as intercalation by using UV–vis spectra, emission spectra, viscosity and molecular docking experiments. DNA photocleavage experimental results showed that the two ruthenium complexes effectively cleave plasmid DNA by producing singlet oxygen. Furthermore, they displayed good topo I inhibition activities. We further found that the two complexes displayed good antitumor activities against Eca-109 cells and A549 cells. The results demonstrated that introduction of phenazine ring will be helpful to design DNA ‘light switch’ based on ruthenium complex.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma
