Abstract

Biological applications of platinum group metal-based complexes have been widely explored in synthetic and inorganic chemistry. The compounds have been subjected to DNA binding, DNA cleavage, In-vivo and In-vitro photocytotoxicity (HCT-116 cell line) and bacteriostatic activities. Binding constant of complexes are 1.42–5.62 × 104 M−1, whereas that of ligands are 1.12–4.72 × 104 M−1. Ksv of complexes are about 1.32–5.21 × 103 M−1, whereas Kf is about 1.24–6.83 × 103 M−1. IC50 of compounds screened using HCT-116 cell line in dark are found to be 121–342 μg/mL. Whereas photocytotoxicity is found in the range of 48–316 μg/mL. Docking energy of molecules have been evaluated to evaluate efficacy of binding. Molecular docking energy of complexes are in the range of −286.00 to −303.11 kJ/mol. Whereas that of ligands are −254.03 to −282.96 kJ/mol. MIC of complexes are 47 ± 2.5 to 77.50 ± 7.5 μM. LC50 values of ligands fall in the range of 4.05–19.72 μg/mL and that of Os(IV) complexes fall in the range of 3.99–15.99 μg/mL. The Os(IV) complexes dominate in proving its potentiality compared to N, N-donor ligands in biological activities.
