Photoinduced tricarbonyl manganese(i) compounds were prepared and cytotoxicity was observed upon illumination at 525 nm. While photolysis profiles of the compounds bearing OH and OCH3 were similar, they had different effects on cell viability.
Before and after illumination, as well as when it was coupled with the medicine Paclitaxel, the visible-light induced fac-Mn(CO)3 molecule of 8-amino showed interesting cytotoxicity against triple-negative breast cancer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
