Two new isostructural coordination compounds of cobalt(II) and zinc(II) involving 2,20-bipyridine and 2,5-pyridine dicarboxylate, viz. [Co(2,5-PDC)(bipy)(2)]center dot 7H(2)O (1) and [Zn(2,5-PDC)(bipy)(2)]center dot 7H(2)O (2) (bipy = 2,20-bipyridine and 2,5-PDC = 2,5-pyridine dicarboxylate), have been synthesized in purely aqueous medium at room temperature. The compounds have been further characterized by single crystal Xray diffraction, FT-IR, electronic spectroscopy, thermal and elemental analysis. Several non-covalent interactions, such as C-H center dot center dot center dot O and anti-parallel pi-stacking contacts, build up the supramolecular layered architectures of the crystal structures. Further analysis of the crystal structures reveals the self-assembled enclathration of a 1D H-bonded (H2O)(8) chain into the supramolecular hexameric host cavity which brings rigidity to the crystal structures. Such unconventional enclathration of H-bonded water molecules in a metal-organic supramolecular host involving bipy is scarcely described in the literature. We have theoretically evaluated the strength of the anti-parallel pi-stacking interactions that are crucial for the stabilization of the supramolecular dimers of the compounds. The influences of the metal coordination on the strength of the pi-stacking interactions have been confirmed using DFT calculations and NCI plot computational tools. The antiproliferative activities of the compounds have been investigated in the DL cell line using MTT cell viability and apoptosis assays. The compounds significantly induce concentration dependent cell cytotoxicity and apoptosis in DL cells with negligible cytotoxicity in normal (PBMC) cells. A molecular docking study also reveals a strong interaction of the compounds with the active site of antiapoptotic BCL proteins. Pharmacophore features of the structures of the compounds responsible for the biological activities were also generated to establish a structure activity relationship (SAR). (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd.
