To study the antitumor activity and action mechanism of Ru(II) polypyridyl plumbagin (PLN) complexes, four complexes [Ru(PLN)(DMSO)2]Cl (Ru1), [Ru(bpy)2(PLN)](PF6) (bpy is bipyridine) (Ru2), [Ru(phen)2(PLN)](PF6) (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline) (Ru3), and [Ru(DIP)2(PLN)](PF6)… Click to show full abstract

To study the antitumor activity and action mechanism of Ru(II) polypyridyl plumbagin (PLN) complexes, four complexes [Ru(PLN)(DMSO)2]Cl (Ru1), [Ru(bpy)2(PLN)](PF6) (bpy is bipyridine) (Ru2), [Ru(phen)2(PLN)](PF6) (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline) (Ru3), and [Ru(DIP)2(PLN)](PF6) (DIP is 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline) (Ru4) were obtained and fully characterized. Lipophilicity, cellular uptake and cytotoxicity of these Ru(II) complexes are in the order of: Ru1
