New benzene ruthenium(II) aroylhydrazone complexes of general molecular formula [Ru(eta(6)-C6H6)Cl(L)] (where L = aroylhydrazone ligand) have been synthesized from the reaction of the precursor [Ru(eta(6)-C6H6)(mu-Cl)Cl](2) and aroylhydrazone ligands. The composition of the complexes has been accomplished by elemental analysis and spectral methods (FT-IR, UV-Vis, H-1 NMR). The molecular structure of complex 4 has been established by single-crystal X-ray structure analysis shows that the aroylhydrazone ligands are coordinated to ruthenium as a bidentate N, O donor and a typical piano stool geometry was observed around ruthenium(II) metal center. All the complexes exhibit two consecutive irreversible oxidations in the potential range +0.74 to +1.17 V (Ru-II/Ru-III; Ru-III/Ru-IV) Vs calomel electrode. Further, in vitro anticancer activity of complexes 1-4 on human breast cancer cell line (MCF-7), human cervical cancer cell line (HeLa) and non-cancerous NIH-3T3 cell line exhibit moderate to excellent cytotoxic activity. It is also evident from IC50 values that the complexes are more potent against MCF-7 cells than cisplatin. The superior activity of the complex 4 assumes that presence of electron donating methoxy substituent which makes the ring more reactive. Further, the morphological changes during cell death were investigated by Acridine Orange-Ethidium Bromide (AO-EB) and DAPI staining techniques, which confirm the complex 4 induces cell death only through apoptosis.
