“…Zinc-containing compounds are useful model compounds for biochemical research, as zinc(II) plays an important role in several zinc-containing metal enzymes such as zinc peptidases [20], human carbonic anhydrase [21], and alkaline phosphatase [22]. Though Cd(II) is a toxic metal [23], complexes have potential applications in catalysis [24], optical properties evolution [25], clathration [26], the vulcanization of diene rubbers [27], and in the treatment of hyperthyroidism [28]. Ag(I) ions are more attuned with biological system [29], with complexes exhibiting diverse coordination geometries as well as antimicrobial, antifungal, and anticancer activities [30][31][32].…”

“…Even at very low concentrations cadmium ion also can cause extensive damage to kidney, liver, lungs, prostates and hematopoietic systems of human, so it has been accepted by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as a category carcinogen. 1,2 Recent studies suggest that cadmium-induced carcinogenicity involve direct or indirect interaction of cadmium with DNA because DNA offers many binding sites for cadmium, [3][4][5][6] although the exact molecular mechanism of cadmium-induced carcinogeniciy remains largely unclear. Indeed, it has been reported that Cd(II) ion can react with nucleobases, nucleic metallothionein and plasmid DNA causing extensive damage to these targets.…”

“…Zamora et al [69] have reported the first example of a guanineguanine cross-link for a Cd(II) complex. A large excess of Cd(NO 3 ) 2 was allowed to react with 9-ethyl-and 9-methylguanine in water at 80 °C to give complexes trans-[Cd II (L) 2 (OH 2 ) 4 ](NO 3 ) 2 ] [L = 9-methylguanine (128) and 9-ethylguanine (129), Scheme (20)].…”
