Synthesis of oxovanadium complexes and their apoptosis-inducing activity in leukemia cells
Vanadium complexes with different ligands were synthesized and evaluated for antiproliferative activity on U937 cells. The alkyl chain length of the ligands affected the antiproliferative activity, and two complexes - 3b and 4 - exhibited strong activities with IC50 values of 6.02 and 3.90 μM respectively. Annexin V staining and DNA ladder formation indicated that these complexes induced apoptosis in U937 cells.
Synthesis, physicochemical properties, and biological evaluation of hydroxypyranones and hydroxypyridinones: Novel bidentate ligands for cell- labeling
The synthesis of a range of hydroxypyranones and hydroxypyridinones with potential for the chelation of indium(III) is described. The crystal structures of two of the indium complexes are presented. The distribution coefficients of the ligands and the corresponding iron(III), gallium(III), and indium(III) complexes are reported. Good linear relationships between the distribution coefficients of the iron and gallium complexes and iron and indium complexes were obtained. In contrast a nonlinear relationship was obtained between the distribution coefficient of the free ligand and the distribution coefficient of the three groups of complexes. This latter relationship was used to identify compounds with optimal cell labeling properties. Two such compounds both 6-(alkoxymethyl)-3-hydroxy-4H-pyran-4- ones have been compared with tropolone for their ability to label human leucocytes with 111In. The leucocyte labeling efficiencies of the selected ligands were greater and the in-vitro plasma stabilities were similar to that of 111In-tropolonate. These results suggest that the new bidentate ligands may offer advantages over those currently used for cell-labeling.

Novel 3-hydroxy-2(1H)-pyridinones. Synthesis, iron(III)-chelating properties, and biological activity
The synthesis of a range of novel bidentate and hexadentate ligands containing the chelating moiety 3-hydroxy-2(1H)-pyridinone is described. The pK(a) values of the ligands and the stability constants of their iron(III) complexes have been determined. The stability constant of the iron(III) complex of one of the hexadentate ligands is comparable to that of desferrioxamine B. The distribution coefficients of the ligands and their iron(III) complexes were also determined. One of the novel hexadentate compounds has been shown to markedly enhance iron(III) excretion from both hepatocytes and iron-overloaded mice.

Iron complexes of hydroxy pyridones useful for treating iron deficiency anemia
Pharmaceutical compositions containing an iron complex of a 3-hydroxypyrid-2-one or 3-hydroxypyrid-4-one in which the hydrogen atom attached to the nitrogen atom is replaced by an aliphatic hydrocarbon group and, optionally, in which one or more of the hydrogen atoms attached to ring carbon atoms are also replaced by an aliphatic hydrocarbon group, are of value for the treatment of iron deficiency anemia.
