    The synthesis and cytotoxicity of Pt(II), Pd(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes (18) with 4′-substituted terpyridine are reported. Complexes 3, 5, 7 and 8 exerted 9-, 5-, 12- and 7-folds higher cytotoxicity than cisplatin against Bel-7402 cell line; 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8 exhibited higher cytotoxicity than cisplatin against BGC-823 cell line; 7 exhibited higher cytotoxicity than cisplatin against HL-60 cell line.

  2. Protecting-group-free palladium-catalyzed hydroxylation, C–O and C–N coupling of chiral 6-bromo- and 6,6’-dibromo- 1,1’-binaphthols

    N-(ferrocenylmethyl amino acid) fluorinated benzene-carboxamide derivatives have been synthesised and biologically evaluated on the estrogen positive MCF-7 breast cancer cell line. N-(ferrocenylmethyl-L-alanine)-3,4,5-trifluorobenzene-carboxamide 5h was the most active compound with an IC50 value of 2.84 μM.

  5. Zirconium complexes bearing bis(phenoxy-imine) ligands with bulky o-bis(aryl)methyl-substituted aniline groups: synthesis, characterization and ethylene polymerization behavior

    Aike Li, Haiyan Ma and Jiling Huang

    Article first published online: 8 MAY 2013 | DOI: 10.1002/aoc.2984

    Thumbnail image of graphical abstract

    Bis(phenoxy-imine) zirconium complexes bearing bulky o-bis(aryl)methyl- substituted aryl groups on the aniline moiety have been synthesized, characterized and tested as catalyst precursors for ethylene polymerization. The introduction of a excessively bulky o-bis(aryl)methyl substituents adjacent to the the imine-N produces low molecular weights aluminium terminated polyethylenes (Al-PEs) (Mv 1.6–10.1 × 103) due to the enhanced rate of chain transfer to alkylaluminum groups during the polymerization.
