Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of two Ag(I)- N -heterocyclic carbene complexes 3 and 4 of imidazole-based NHC proligands 1 and 2, respectively, are described. The findings revealed that the choice of the counter ions is crucial, which can lead to different supramolecular architectures. Complex 3 is a trinuclear, whereas its analogue complex 4 is mononuclear. Despite being structurally different entities, these complexes form cis -palladium-NHC complex 5 by trans-metallation method, which is a cis -platinum analogue. All the reported compounds 1-5 were tested for their anticancer activities, where compounds 2 and 3 found more potent than the rest.
