Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of cancer cell growth by ruthenium(II) arene complexes

TL;DR: These chelated Ru(II) arene complexes have potential as novel metal-based anticancer agents with a mechanism of action different from that of the Ru(III) complex currently on clinical trial.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparing entire crystal structures: structural genetic fingerprinting

TL;DR: In this paper, a proof-of-concept example for a method that allows the calculation of a similarity index between whole molecular crystal structures; this has been termed "structural genetic fingerprinting" is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure-activity relationships for cytotoxic ruthenium(II) arene complexes containing N,N-, N,O-, and O,O-chelating ligands

TL;DR: In this paper, structure-activity relationships for organometallic RuII complexes of the type [(η6-arene)Ru(XY)Cl]Z, where XY is an N,N- (diamine), N,O- (e.g., amino acidate), or O,O − (β-diketonate) chelating ligand, the arene ranges from benzene derivatives to fused polycyclic hydrocarbons, and Z is usually PF6.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthetic and structural studies of cobalt-pivalate complexes.

TL;DR: The synthesis and characterisation of a range of cobalt pivalate cage complexes are reported, and a scheme is proposed to account for the many structures observed, which may be applicable to other polymetallic cage complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current directions in co-crystal growth

TL;DR: In this article, the issues relating to the crystal growth of co-crystals, with a particular emphasis on drug development, are discussed, and relevant literature examples that may be able to inform our understanding with regards to cocrystal crystallisation and the allied supramolecular concepts.
