Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to metal complexes, specifically a method for preparing and applying a coumarin-hydrazide semi-sandwich type iridium and ruthenium complex, belonging to the field of chemical pharmaceuticals. Background Technology

[0002] Chemotherapy is a core treatment for malignant tumors. While it can exert a clear tumor-suppressing effect, its lack of specific mechanism of action and tendency to induce severe systemic toxicity significantly limit its clinical application value. Traditional platinum-based antitumor drugs (such as cisplatin and carboplatin) are widely used clinically due to their broad-spectrum antitumor activity, but they suffer from prominent drawbacks such as strong drug resistance, insufficient targeting, and significant toxicity to normal tissues and cells, becoming a core bottleneck restricting treatment efficacy and patients' quality of life. Against this backdrop, the development of novel metal complex anticancer drugs that combine high antitumor activity, low toxicity, and excellent targeting has become a current research focus in the field of medicinal chemistry.

[0003] Coumarin derivatives naturally possess diverse biological activities such as antitumor and anti-inflammatory effects, and their molecular structures can be easily modified through chemical modification to achieve precise regulation of physicochemical properties and biological functions, making them high-quality active ligands for constructing novel antitumor metal complexes. The organic fusion with metal centers provides an effective pathway to overcome the application limitations of traditional metal anticancer drugs. Currently, research on the antitumor effects of coumarin-based metal complexes has achieved phased results. In existing studies, some research groups have developed coumarin-modified fluorescent cycloiridium (III) complexes, and some products have shown better half-maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC50) against lung cancer A549 cells than the first-line clinical drug cisplatin, providing a visual research tool for in-depth analysis of their antitumor mechanisms (e.g., Formula A, CN111646966A); Meanwhile, N... ^ The O chelate coordination mode can form a stable coordination ring with the metal center, effectively ensuring the structural stability and targeting of the complex in the organism (e.g., Formula B, CN118978551 B).

[0004] However, coumarin-based metal complexes with a half-sandwich spatial configuration are extremely rare in existing reports (e.g., iridium ring configuration in Formula A). These complexes use iridium / ruthenium as the metal center, aromatic ring ligands (such as cyclopentane or benzene) as the facet, and monodentate / bidentate auxiliary ligands as the legs, exhibiting both structural stability and tunable properties. Even when a half-sandwich structure is involved, the ligand framework is mostly limited to aryl-based salicylaldimine systems (e.g., Formula C, Dalton Trans. 2020. 50, 11447-11458); based on this, a series of N... ^The O-chelated semi-sandwich iridium and ruthenium complex, with oxygen coordinating atoms in the ligands derived from the hydroxyl groups of the coumarin core, combines the functions of coumarin and hydrazide in a single coordination environment. Its synthetic route and reaction conditions are simple; furthermore, by controlling the types of substituents in the coumarin core and the electronic configuration of the metal center, the antitumor activity and targeting of the complex can be optimized, and its anticancer activity is close to that of cisplatin. This indicates that the coumarin-hydrazide-N... ^ O-chelated semi-sandwich-type complexes show promise as a potential new type of anticancer drug. Summary of the Invention

These novel semi-sandwich-type complexes exhibit excellent antitumor effects.

Example 9 Experiment on the inhibitory activity of complexes 1-8 with anticancer activity on the proliferation of tumor cell lines: (1) Preparation of the test compound: Dissolve the solid ligand and complex in DMSO to prepare a stock solution of a certain concentration. Dilute the stock solution further with cell culture medium until the working concentration is reached, and culture for 24 h.

[0032] (2) Cell growth inhibition assay (MTT method): 1) Take 5000 human cervical cancer cells (HeLa) and human non-small cell lung cancer cells (A549) respectively, prepare cell suspensions, and seed them in 96-well culture plates; 2) Pre-culture cells in drug-free medium, incubate at 5% CO2 and 310 K for 24 hours, add the prepared test compound, and incubate for 24 hours; 3) Add 15 μL of 5 mg / mL MTT solution to each well and continue culturing for 4 hours to form purple crystalline formazan; 4) Terminate the culture, carefully aspirate the culture medium from the wells, add 100 μL of DMSO to each well to fully dissolve the formazan precipitate, mix with a shaker, and then measure the optical density of each well at a wavelength of 570 nm using a microplate reader. 5) Each experiment was repeated three times, IC 50 =mean ± SEM. The inhibition rates of complexes 1-8 and commercial cisplatin on the growth of cancer cells HeLa and A549 are shown in Table 1.

[0033] Table 1 Table 1 shows that all complexes exhibited good anticancer activity against A549 and HeLa cells, with activity approaching that of commercially available cisplatin. A comparison of the anticancer activities of complexes 1-8 revealed that the type of metal center significantly influenced their anticancer activity. Complexes 1-4 and 5-8 showed significant differences in activity, with the ruthenium-based complex exhibiting superior anticancer activity. Furthermore, structural modification of the ligand substituent R1 had a prominent regulatory effect on activity, with aryl-substituted complexes (3-4, 7-8) showing better anticancer activity than alkyl-substituted complexes (1-2, 5-6). These findings provide practical theoretical reference for the design and development of novel metal complex-based antitumor drugs.
