L-Citrullinato-Bipyridine and L-Citrullinato-Phenanthroline Mixed Copper Complexes: Synthesis, Characterization and Potential Anticancer Activity

Citrulline (C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>13</sub>N<sub>3</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) is an amino acid found in the body as a zwitterion. This means its carboxylic and amine groups can act as Lewis donors to chelate metal cations. In addition, citrulline possesses a term...

520 |a Citrulline (C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>13</sub>N<sub>3</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) is an amino acid found in the body as a zwitterion. This means its carboxylic and amine groups can act as Lewis donors to chelate metal cations. In addition, citrulline possesses a terminal ureido group on its aliphatic chain, which also appears to coordinate. Here, two new mixed complexes of citrulline were made with 1,10-phenanthroline and 2,2'-bipyridine. These compounds, once dissolved in water, gave aquo-complexes that were subject to DFT studies and in vitro toxicity studies on cancer cell lines (HeLa, MDA-MB-231, HCT 15, and MCF7) showed promising results. Docking studies with DNA were also conducted, indicating potential anticancer properties.
