description | Four pincer-type Co (II) complexes of the 2,4-<i>bis</i> (3,5-dimethyl-1<i>H</i>-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-methoxy-1,3,5-triazine ligand (<b>L</b>) were evaluated for their cytotoxic activities against lung and breast cancer cell lines using cell viability assay. The X-ray single crystal structure of [Co(L)(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>2</sub>Br]Br (<b>1</b>) confirmed the pincer coordination behavior of the ligand <b>L</b> as an <i>N</i>-tridentate chelate. The hexa-coordination environment of Co (II) is completed by one bromide ion completing the equatorial plane of the octahedral structure and two <i>trans</i> water molecules at the axial positions. It crystallized in the monoclinic crystal system and <i>P2<sub>1</sub>/m</i> space group with crystal parameters of a = 11.3170(10) Å, b = 7.4613(7) Å, c = 12.6917(12) Å and β = 95.927(3)°. Based on Hirshfeld analysis, the most dominant contacts are H…H (48.8%), Br…H (17.6%), H…C (11.2%) and O…H (10.1%), where the Br…H interactions are the most significant. The cytotoxic evaluation of the studied systems indicated that complex [Co(L)(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>] (<b>4</b>) has the highest activity against lung (A-549) and breast (MCF-7) cell lines. In contrast, complex [Co(L)(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>3</sub>](ClO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>.H<sub>2</sub>O(<b>3</b>) has the lowest cytotoxic activity against both cell lines. |
