Abstract
A new complex Cu(bpbp)Cl2×DMF×H2O is synthesized by treatment of CuCl2 with 2,6-bis(1-phenylbenzimidazol-2-yl)pyidine in DMF. Its structure is characterized by elemental, IR, UV, and single crystal X-ray structure analyses. For the complex: crystal system, triclinic, space group P ī, a = 1.0537(1) nm, b = 1.1735(1) nm, c = 1.3749(2) nm, α = 112.275(2)°, β = 91.531(2)°, γ = 97.700(2)°, V = 1.553(4) nm3, Z = 2. In a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry the Cu(II) ion is coordinated by three nitrogen atoms from 2,6-bis(1-phenylbenzimidazol-2-yl)pyridine and two chloride ions. The antiproliferative activities of the complex are screened by MTT assay against HepG2, Huh7, Eca109, and Eca9706 cancer cells. The complex exhibits specific inhibition on Eca9706 cancer cells with the IC50 value of 28 mM after 48 h treatment. CCDC: 968927.
