“…6 Since the aromatic substituents on the ruthenium complexes are crucial for their biological activity, a number of efforts have been made to synthesize various ruthenium arene complexes with potential anticancer activity. 7 Research on novel anticancer drugs has recently focused on ruthenium complexes bearing nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ligands, especially 1,2,3-triazole derivatives. 7 a ,8 The 1,2,3-triazoles, one of the most important classes of nitrogen-containing heterocycles, have diverse biological activities that include antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal and antitubercular activities and excellent hydrogen donating and accepting ability, and have been applied in medicine and in pharmaceuticals during the past decades.…”
