Ni(II) complexes of ortho-naphthaquinone thiosemicarbazone and semicarbazone were synthesized and spectroscopically characterized. The X-ray crystal structure of both the complexes describe a distorted octahedral coordination with two tridentate mono-deprotonated ligands. In vitro anticancer studies on MCF-7 human breast cancer cells reveal that the semicarbazone derivative along with its nickel complex is more active in the inhibition of cell proliferation than the thiosemicarbazone analogue.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008024 Ligands A molecule that binds to another molecule, used especially to refer to a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger molecule, e.g., an antigen binding to an antibody, a hormone or neurotransmitter binding to a receptor, or a substrate or allosteric effector binding to an enzyme. Ligands are also molecules that donate or accept a pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with the central metal atom of a coordination complex. (From Dorland, 27th ed) Ligand
