Copper(II), nickel(II), palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes of ortho-naphthaquinone thiosemicarbazone were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic studies. In both solution (NMR) and solid state (IR, single-crystal X-ray diffraction determination) the free ligand NQTS exists as the thione form. The Pd complex (X-ray) crystallizes as the H-bonded dimer, [Pd(NQTS)Cl](2) (.) 2DMSO, where palladium(II) coordinates in a square planar configuration to the monodeprotonated, tridentate thiosemicarbazone ligand. The nickel(II) complex shows 1:2 metal to ligand stoichiometry while the other complexes exhibit 1:1 metal-ligand compositions. In vitro anticancer studies on MCF7 human breast cancer cells reveal that adding a thiosemicarbazone pharmacophore to the parent quinone carbonyl considerably enhances its antiproliferative activity. Among the metal complexes, the nickel compound exhibits the lowest IC50 value (2.25 muM) suggesting a different mechanism of action involving inhibition of topoisomerase II activity.
