We synthesized two mixed-ligand Cu(II) complexes containing different aroylhydrazone ligands and a pyridine co-ligand, namely, [Cu(L1)(Py)] (C1) and [Cu(L2)(Py)(Br)] (C2) (L1?= (E)-2-hydroxy-N′-((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene)benzohydrazide, Py?=?pyr

Ribonucleotide reductase (RR) catalyses the rate-limiting step of dNTP synthesis, establishing it as an important cancer target. While RR is traditionally inhibited by nucleoside-based antimetabolites, we recently discovered a naphthyl salicyl acyl hydrazone-based inhibitor (NSAH) that binds reversibly to the catalytic site (C-site). Here we report the synthesis and in vitro evaluation of 13 distinct compounds (TP1-13) with improved binding to hRR over NSAH (TP8), with lower KD’s and more predicted residue interactions. Moreover, TP6 displayed the greatest growth inhibiting effect in the Panc1 pancreatic cancer cell line with an IC50 of 0.393 μM. This represents more than a 2-fold improvement over NSAH, making TP6 the most potent compound against pancreatic cancer emerging from the hydrazone inhibitors. NSAH was optimised by the addition of cyclic and polar groups replacing the naphthyl moiety, which occupies the phosphate-binding pocket in the C-site, establishing a new direction in inhibitor design.

The simpler, the better! A series of simple and highly fluorescent salicylaldehyde hydrazide molecules (41 samples) have been designed and prepared. Even though these soft materials contain a very small π-conjugated system, they can go through multiple intramolecular and intermolecular hydrogen bonds promoted excited-state intramolecular proton-transfer (ESIPT) to display strong blue, green, yellow, and orange aggregation-induced emission (AIE) with large Stokes shifts (up to 184 nm) and high fluorescence quantum yields (Ф up to 0.20). Unusual mechanochromic fluorescence enhancements are also found in some solid samples. Through coordination, hydrogen and halogen bonds, these flexible molecules can be used as Mg2+ (Ф up to 0.46) probes, universal anion (Ф up to 0.14) and unprotected amino acids (Ф up to 0.16) probes, and chiral diamine (enantiomeric selectivity and Ф up to 0.36 and 0.062, respectively) receptors. Combining their advantages of AIE and biocompatibility, these low cytotoxic dyes have potential application in living cell imaging. Furthermore, the effects of different functional groups on the molecule arrangement, ESIPT, AIE, probe, and chiral recognition properties are also examined, which provide a simple and bright paradigm for the design of multiple-stimuli-responsive smart materials.
