Slow diffusion in situ ruthenium/ligand reaction: crystal structures, fluorescence and biological properties
Slow diffusion in situ ruthenium/ligand reaction: crystal structures, fluorescence and biological properties
Promoted by RuCl3·3H2O coordination in the mixed solvent DMF/H2O, diverse in situ S–S bond reactions such as S–S bond scission and S-oxidation occurred in the disulfide ligand of 2,2?-dithiodibenzoic acid (dtdb) to yield the new sulfinato-benzoate ligand (sb). The X-ray analysis of complexes of [Ru(phen)2(sb)] (1) and [Ru(bipy)2(sb)·H2O] (2) revealed that in both complexes, the ruthenium ion was found to be in an octahedral geometry, coordinating to the sulfur atom, rather than the oxygen of sulfinate. The complexes were found to be active against the bacterial strains tested with MIC ranging from 14.3–261 ?M. In addition, the metal complexes present strong DNA binding affinity constants in the major or minor grooves at the order of magnitude 105-106 M? 1. The antioxidant activities of the ligand and its metal complexes were investigated through scavenging effects for DPPH in vitro, indicating that the compounds show stronger activities than some standard antioxidants, such as ascorbic and vitamin C.

Abstract
Promoted by RuCl3·3H2O coordination in the mixed solvent DMF/H2O, diverse in situ S–S bond reactions such as S–S bond scission and S-oxidation occurred in the disulfide ligand of 2,2?-dithiodibenzoic acid (dtdb) to yield the new sulfinato-benzoate ligand (sb). The X-ray analysis of complexes of [Ru(phen)2(sb)] (1) and [Ru(bipy)2(sb)·H2O] (2) revealed that in both complexes, the ruthenium ion was found to be in an octahedral geometry, coordinating to the sulfur atom, rather than the oxygen of sulfinate. The complexes were found to be active against the bacterial strains tested with MIC ranging from 14.3–261 ?M. In addition, the metal complexes present strong DNA binding affinity constants in the major or minor grooves at the order of magnitude 105-106 M? 1. The antioxidant activities of the ligand and its metal complexes were investigated through scavenging effects for DPPH in vitro, indicating that the compounds show stronger activities than some standard antioxidants, such as ascorbic and vitamin C.
