Journal ArticleDOI

Antitumour and Toxicity Evaluation of a Ru(II)-Cyclopentadienyl Complex in a Prostate Cancer Model by Imaging Tools

TL;DR: Under the experimental conditions of this study, TM85 is less toxic than cisplatin, induces similar tumour reduction and avoids the formation of metastatic foci, and can be considered a valuable compound for further studies in the field of Ru-based anticancer drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polymerization of ɛ-caprolactone using ruthenium(II) mixed metallocene catalysts and isopropyl alcohol: Living character and mechanistic study

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of ruthenium(II) complexes with the general formula [Ru(η 5 -C 5 H 5 ) (η 6 -substituted arene)] + [PF 6 ] − (substitized arene = 2-phenylpyridine (1), dibenzosuberone (2 ) and toluene (3 )), in combination with isopropyl alcohol, were used for the polymerization of ǫ-caprolactone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Half-lanthanidocenes catalysts via the “borohydride/alkyl” route: A simple approach of ligand screening for the controlled polymerization of styrene

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the nature of several ligands on the performance of half-lanthanidocene catalysts was investigated using an in situ approach, with trends corresponding to those obtained starting from isolated precursors.
Book ChapterDOI

Ruthenium and iron metallodrugs: new inorganic and organometallic complexes as prospective anticancer agents

TL;DR: An overview of the development of ruthenium and iron-based metallodrugs as prospective chemotherapeutics in cancer treatment can be found in this article, where the authors provide an overview of recent developments in this field.
