Abstract
Binuclear O-bridged titanium(IV) complexes of phenylenediamine-bis(phenolato) ligands were obtained from the corresponding ligands and Ti(OiPr)4 and analyzed by 1H, 13C and diffusion NMR. The comparative hydrolytic stability in 1:9 D2O/DMSO-d6 was assessed by 1H NMR, and the complexes featured t1/2 values of above 100 h. The cytotoxic activity of the binuclear complexes was measured toward human colon HT-29 cancer cell line by the MTT assay. Although as expected most complexes exhibited mild or no cytotoxic activity, one leading complex demonstrated marked activity with IC50 value of 77 ± 40 μM.
