Ligand substitutions between ruthenium–cymene compounds can control protein versus DNA targeting and anticancer activity by Davey, Curt Alexander, Adhireksan, Zenita, Davey, Gabriela E., Campomanes, Pablo, Groessl, Michael, Clavel, Catherine M., Yu, Haojie, Nazarov, Alexey A., Yeo, Charmian Hui Fang, Ang, Wee Han, Dröge, Peter, Rothlisberger, Ursula, Dyson, Paul J.

“…Here we study two prototypical ruthenium-arene agents—the cytotoxic antiprimary tumour compound [(η6-p-cymene)Ru(ethylene-diamine)Cl]PF6 and the relatively non-cytotoxic antimetastasis compound [(η6-p-cymene)Ru(1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane)Cl2]—and discover that the former targets the DNA of chromatin, while the latter preferentially forms adducts on the histone proteins. Using a novel ‘atom-to-cell’ approach, we establish the basis for the surprisingly site-selective adduct formation behaviour and distinct cellular impact of these two chemically similar anticancer agents, which suggests that the cytotoxic effects arise largely from DNA lesions, whereas the protein adducts may be linked to the other therapeutic activities. …”

An unusual [4 + 4] cycloadduct from an o-quinodimethane : characterisation and computational studies by Mohamed Husaini Abdul Rahman, Ramabhadran, Raghunath O., Collier, Steven J., Storr, Richard C., Bates, Roderick Wayland

“…Trapping of a pyrimidinone-derived o-quinodimethane with tetraphenylcyclopentadienone gives a mixture of the [4 + 2] and formal [4 + 4] adducts. Computational studies show that the latter arises by a sequence of [4 + 2] cycloaddition, homolysis, radical recombination to a spiro-tetrahydrofuran and Claisen rearrangement under the thermolytic conditions.…”
