Gold(I) complexes of imidazole and thiazole-based diphos type ligands were prepared and their potential as chemotherapeutics investigated. Depending on the ligands employed and the reaction conditions complexes [L(AuCl)(2)] and [L2Au] X (X = Cl, PF6) are obtained. The ligands used are diphosphanes with azoyl substituents R2P(CH2)(2)PR2 {R = 1-methylimidazol-2-yl (1), 1-methylbenzimidazol-2-yl (4), thiazol-2-yl (5) and benzthiazol-2-yl (6)} as well as the novel ligands RPhP(CH2)(2)PRPh {R = 1-methylimidazol-2-yl (3)} and R2P(CH2)(3)PR2 {R = 1-methylimidazol-2-yl (2)}. The cytotoxic activity of the complexes was assessed against three human cancer cell lines and a rat hepatoma cell line and correlated to the lipophilicity of the compounds. The tetrahedral gold complexes [(3)(2)Au] PF6 and [(5)(2)Au] PF6 with intermediate lipophilicity (logD(7.4) = 0.21 and 0.25) showed significant cytotoxic activity in different cell lines. Both compounds induce apoptosis and inhibit the enzymes thioredoxin reductase and glutathione reductase.
