Arene ruthenium(II) complexes have been widely studied in the recent years, and their chemistry has been extensively studied for arenes such as benzene and para-cymene. They have found applications in catalysis, supramolecular assemblies, molecular devices.1 Moreover, they have shown antiviral, antibiotic and anticancer activities.2 Recently, mononuclear Ru-acylpyrazolone complexes have been shown to exhibit interesting in vitro activity in some cancer cells.3 On the basis of the our previous work,4 we extend our investigation to the interaction of several acylpyrazolones ligands with (arene)ruthenium(II)dichloride acceptors and PTA (1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane)(Figure 1). Their structures have been confirmed by analytical and spectral data. X-ray diffraction studies and their biological activity are under investigation.

Abstract
Arene ruthenium(II) complexes have been widely studied in the recent years, and their chemistry has been extensively studied for arenes such as benzene and para-cymene. They have found applications in catalysis, supramolecular assemblies, molecular devices.1 Moreover, they have shown antiviral, antibiotic and anticancer activities.2 Recently, mononuclear Ru-acylpyrazolone complexes have been shown to exhibit interesting in vitro activity in some cancer cells.3 On the basis of the our previous work,4 we extend our investigation to the interaction of several acylpyrazolones ligands with (arene)ruthenium(II)dichloride acceptors and PTA (1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane)(Figure 1). Their structures have been confirmed by analytical and spectral data. X-ray diffraction studies and their biological activity are under investigation.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
