Acylpyrazolone-based Schiff base ligands (HL) and their corresponding Pt(II) complexes with the general formula [Pt(L)(Cl)] (n = 1-3) were synthesized and characterized by different spectroscopic techniques including H-NMR, Pt-NMR, LC-Mass, FT-IR, and UV-Vis spectroscopy, as well as elemental analysis. The crystal structure of one of the Schiff base ligands was also obtained. Based on the ADMET comparative results and the bioavailability radar charts, the complexes are completely drug-like. The Schiff base complexes with a structural difference of one methyl group in ligand were used as anticancer agents against human breast cancer cell lines SKBR3 and MDA-MB-231. The IC values after treatment by [Pt(L)Cl] and [Pt(L)Cl] were obtained more than cisplatin and less than carboplatin on cancer cells MDA-MB-231 and SKBR3, while the IC value of [Pt(L)Cl] was more than both other complexes and clinical Pt drugs. Molecular docking data showed that the groove binding is the main interaction with DNA double strands with a minor contribution from electrostatic interactions. To investigate the structure-activity relationship, DFT computational was done. All quantum chemical parameters display the drug approaching biomacromolecule and more biological activity of [Pt(L)Cl] > [Pt(L)Cl] > [Pt(L)Cl]. So, three Schiff base platinum complexes can be suitable candidates as anticancer drugs. Schiff-base ligands (HLn) and their Pt(II) complexes ([Pt(Ln)(Cl)], n=1-3) were obtained. To investigate their biological property and main interactions with DNA, ADMET, and cytotoxicity against MDA-MB-231 and SKBR3, DFT, and Molecular docking were done.
酰基吡唑啉酮基希夫碱配体(HL)及其相应的 Pt(II) 配合物,通式为[Pt(L)(Cl)](n=1-3),通过不同的光谱技术,包括 H-NMR、Pt-NMR、LC-Mass、FT-IR 和 UV-Vis 光谱以及元素分析进行了合成和表征。其中一个希夫碱配体的晶体结构也得到了确定。根据 ADMET 比较结果和生物利用度雷达图,这些配合物完全具有类药性。带有配体中一个甲基结构差异的希夫碱配合物被用作针对人类乳腺癌细胞系 SKBR3 和 MDA-MB-231 的抗癌剂。在用[Pt(L)Cl]和[Pt(L)Cl]处理后,IC 值在 MDA-MB-231 和 SKBR3 癌细胞上都大于顺铂且小于卡铂,而[Pt(L)Cl]的 IC 值大于其他两个配合物和临床 Pt 药物。分子对接数据表明,沟槽结合是与 DNA 双链的主要相互作用,静电相互作用的贡献较小。为了研究构效关系,进行了 DFT 计算。所有量子化学参数均显示药物接近生物大分子,[Pt(L)Cl]的生物活性更高>[Pt(L)Cl]>[Pt(L)Cl]。因此,三种希夫碱铂配合物可以作为潜在的抗癌药物。获得了希夫碱配体(HLn)及其 Pt(II) 配合物[Pt(Ln)(Cl)](n=1-3)。为了研究它们的生物学特性和与 DNA 的主要相互作用、ADMET、对 MDA-MB-231 和 SKBR3 的细胞毒性,进行了 DFT 和分子对接。
