Tuning the Anticancer Activity of Gold(I) Complexes via Redox-Active Ar-Bian Ligands: Experimental and Theoretical Insights

Abstract A series of cationic gold(I) complexes of the type [Au(PPh3)(Ar-Bian)](CF3SO3) based on 1,2-bis[(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene (tmp-Bian), 1,2-bis[(4-chlorophenyl)imino]acenaphthene (4–Cl-C6H4–Bian), 1,2-bis[(4-bromophenyl)imino]acenaphthene (4–Br-C6H4–Bian),...
