Organometallic chemistry, biology and medicine: ruthenium arene anticancer complexes

TL;DR: Initial studies on amino acids and nucleotides suggest that kinetic and thermodynamic control over a wide spectrum of reactions of Ru(II) arene complexes with biomolecules can be achieved.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of organometallic (organo-transition metal) pharmaceuticals

TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce the organometallic chemist to the fascinating area of organometal pharmaceuticals, and describe the properties of transition metal compounds that lend themselves to medical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complexes of metals other than platinum as antitumour agents.

TL;DR: Several platinum complexes and four non-platinum-metal antitumour agents have so far entered early clinical trials, and Gallium trinitrate and spirogermanium have shown limited cytostatic activity against certain human carcinomas and lymphomas.

Investigations into the antitumour activity of organotin compounds. I. Diorganotin dihalide and di-pseudohalide complexes

TL;DR: The antitumor activity of a series of diorganotin dihalide and di-pseudohalide complexes, R2SnX2, L2, where R = Methyl (Me), Ethyl (Et), n-Propyl (Pr, n-Butyl (Bu) or Phenyl (Ph), and L = O- or N- donor organic ligand, which were modelled on the active platinum complexes, has been investigated.

Possible pre-dissociation of diorganotin dihalide complexes: Relationship between antitumour activity and structure

TL;DR: An examination of crystallographic data has indicated that the structure/activity relationship for diorganotin dihalide complexes is different from that of other metal dihalides, in that the Sn-N bond lengths appear to determine the antitumour activity.

Antitumor activity of some diorganotin and tin(IV) complexes of Schiff bases.

TL;DR: Di-n-butyltin complex derived from salicylaldehyde-S-methyl dithiocarbazate has been found to be the most active in this series and display T/C values in the range 94-124.
