Summary: The stable and easily accessible salt [Ni(CO)(4)](+)[F{Al(ORF)(3)}(2)](-) was used as a Ni-I synthon to generate novel half-sandwich complexes [Ni(arene)(CO)(2)](+). The reaction with [Ni(o-dfb)(2)](+) salt, which has a rather endergonic reaction, was successful by removing CO irreversibly. The resulting complex has a unique slipped eta(3), eta(3)-sandwich structure and is the ultimate synthon for Ni-I chemistry.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of the structure of indole thiosemicarbazone derivatives on the anticancer activity of their ruthenium complexes. The complexes show good biomolecular interactions with DNA/protein and exhibit significant anticancer potential against MB-MDA-231 and MCF-7 cancer cells. The substitution of a benzyl group at the indoleN improves the cytotoxic profile of the complexes compared to the allyl group, and the para-substituted benzyl scaffolds show higher anticancer activity than the meta-substituted compounds.

Summary: Denticity of ligands plays a significant role in the cytotoxicity of metal complexes. This study evaluated the impact of ligand denticity in the Ru(II)-DMSO complexes on the cytotoxicity of cancer cells. Results showed that the complex with a tridentate chromone ligand exhibited better anticancer activity compared to the one with a bidentate chromene ligand. The stable nature of the tridentate system and the higher reactivity of the chloride ligand in the tridentate species were attributed to the observed differences in cytotoxicity. The complex demonstrated selective cytotoxicity against breast cancer cells and lower toxicity against normal cells, indicating its effective anticancer potential.

Summary: We designed and synthesized bipodal ligands with varying substitution on the phenyl group spacer. Ligands and complexes with different arene units were successfully synthesized and characterized. The coordination behavior of the ligands was minimally influenced by substitution change, but differences were observed in the anticancer activity of the complexes. DFT and X-ray diffraction studies revealed structural variations between the different substitutions, and UV-visible spectroscopy determined the correlation between anticancer activity, hydrolysis rate, and lipophilicity index of the complexes. Staining assays, flow cytometry, and Western blot analysis confirmed the apoptotic cell death mechanism of the active complexes.

Summary: A new aryl selenonium polyoxometalate hybrid was developed and compared with an aryl sulfonium polyoxometalate hybrid in terms of their photocatalytic properties. It was found that the aryl selenonium hybrid exhibited better catalytic performance, which could be attributed to the larger atomic radii of selenium stabilizing the photogenerated electron-hole pair more efficiently. Additionally, the generation of elemental selenium through cleavage of C-Se bonds during catalysis was observed.
