“…Starting from antipyrine , N , N ′-tetra(4-antipyrylmethyl)-1,2-diaminoethane ( L 101a ) and (2,3-dimethyl-1-phenyl-3-pyrazolin-5-one) the N , N ′-bis(4-antipyrylmethyl)piperazine ( L 101b ) were prepared, and the mixed-valent compound [Cu II ( L 101a )][Cu I (NCS) 2 Cl](DMF) 2 , 101 (Figure b), was synthesized and structurally characterized . In contrast to the ligand, the corresponding complex 101 decreased the viability of both cultured tumor (MCF-7, A549, 8MGBA, Hep G2) and nontumor (MDBK, Balb/c 3T3) cell lines in a time- and concentration-dependent manner …”
