Unlocking the potential of iridium and ruthenium arene complexes as anti-tumor and anti-metastasis chemotherapeutic agents
Mengdi Lv & Hong-Ke Liu et al. · 2022-11-02
It is a major challenge to design novel multifunctional metal-based chemotherapeutic agents for anti-tumor and anti-metastasis applications. Two complexes (OA-Ir and OA-Ru) were synthesized via CuAAC (copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition) reaction from nontoxic Ir-N
