Abstract

:
Metal mediated coupling of isocyanides with substituted N-(pyridine-2-yl) ureas was first used to incorporate privileged biological motifs into platinum metal complexes. We synthesized two palladium(II) and two platinum(II) cyclometallated species with oxadiazole cores. The compounds were isolated in good yields (61–73%) and characterized by high-resolution mass spectrometry and 1H, 13C, and 195Pt NMR spectroscopies. The structures of three complexes were additionally elucidated by X-ray diffraction analysis. These complexes indeed showed cytotoxic activity. The species bearing the 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety exhibit more potency than the ones with the 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring. Particularly, the cytotoxic effect of both 1,3,4-oxadiazole-based complexes towards T98G cells significantly exceeds the common antitumor metal-drug cisplatin.

1. Introduction

Starting from the second half of the 20th century and up to the present, coordination compounds of platinum group metals with nitrogen-containing ligands have been widely used in the treatment of oncological diseases [1]. For many years, the recognized leader among such compounds was cisplatin, but, over time, its shortcomings began to appear more and more. Currently, one of the promising approaches for creating drugs with increased efficiency and a small number of side effects is the incorporation of various heterocyclic ligands into the structure of palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes [2,3,4,5], as well as the use of cyclometallated species [3,4,5].
As a rule, the preparation of late transition metal complexes with cyclometallating (C^N) ligands includes a stage of a N^C–X bond selective intramolecular activation (X = H, halogen) [6]. Often, need for the activation narrows the range of possible products. Therefore, alternative methods for creating these metallacycles are of interest. One such method is the reaction of bis(isocyanide) metal complexes with poly-N-nucleophiles [7,8]. The products of this reaction are C,N-chelate deprotonated diaminocarbene species, which are actively used in various fields of chemistry [9]: catalysis of cross-coupling [10,11,12,13,14,15] and hydrosilylation [16,17,18,19], alkyne activation [20,21,22], and the sensing of mercury(II) ions in solution [23]. Chelate mono- and binuclear complexes of palladium(II) and platinum(II) that contain a diaminocarbene or aminoimidoyl (deprotonated diaminocarbene) fragment became convenient models for studying new types of noncovalent bonding in organometallic compounds [24]. In addition, these complexes have been shown to be promising luminescent materials [25] and antitumor cytotoxic agents [26,27].
In order for the preparation of cyclometallated platinum metal complexes based on coupling metal bis(isocyanide) species with poly-N-nucleophiles to make it possible to obtain a wide range of functionalized derivatives, availability of functionalized polynucleophiles is necessary. We have recently managed to solve this problem by developing a convenient method for the synthesis of pyridyl-substituted dialkylureas [28] and demonstrating their ability to act as polynucleophiles in the reaction with bis(isocyanide) complexes [17,29]. This opens the way for us to obtain cyclometallated complexes of platinum(II) and palladium(II) containing an additional heterocycle, for which we chose oxadiazoles in this work.
The reason for our choice was that both the 1,2,4-oxadiazole and 1,3,4-oxadiazole cores represent privileged motifs for anticancer research studies [30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38], including the design of antitumor metal agents [39]. Moreover, these heterocycles demonstrated acceptable pharmacokinetic profiles and low toxicity in many studies [40,41,42,43]. Therefore, in this work, we set ourselves the task of synthesizing C,N-cyclometallated platinum metal complexes functionalized with oxadiazole substituents (Scheme 1) and determining their antitumor activity.

2. Results and Discussion

2.1. Synthesis and Characterization of Complexes 3a–d

Recently we reported on synthesis of palladium(II) and platinum(II) deprotonated diaminocarbene complexes via the metal mediated nucleophilic addition of N-(pyridine-2-yl) ureas to isocyanides [17,18,29]. In these works, ureas bearing pyridine, picoline, quinoline, or isoquinoline moieties were only considered, whereas the reactivity of ureas with more complicated substituents such as heterocycles was not investigated. Notably, both 1,2,4- and 1,3,4-oxadiazole rings are able to coordinate to platinum metals [39,44,45] and hinder the aim reaction.
For the starting reaction conditions, we chose a previously used protocol: the treatment of equivalent amounts of oxadiazole substituted N–pyridylureas 1, cis-[MCl2(CNXyl)2 (M = Pd, 2a; Pt, 2b), and triethanolamine in CHCl3 at RT for 24 h. However, the conversion of urea was not full in this reaction condition. So, the amounts of complex 2 and the base were increased up to 1.2 equiv, and, as a result, target chelate deprotonated diaminocarbene complexes 3a–d were obtained in moderate yields (61–73%) (Scheme 1).
All the synthesized compounds were characterized by NMR spectroscopy (1H, 13C, 195Pt) and HR mass spectrometry. In NMR spectra (both 1H and 13C) of all these complexes, the splitting of methyl group signals in the NMe2 moiety and in the xylyl ring of the diaminocarbene ligand was detected. According to our suggestion, this effect related to double-bond character of the carbon–nitrogen bond (C6–N3 in Table 1) and, therefore, the slower rotation around the C–N bond. The same effect was found for previously synthesized Pt(II) [17] and Pd(II) [29] deprotonated diaminocarbene complexes with coordinated N–pyridylureas. A broad doublet in the range of δ 9.29−9.48 ppm assigned to the α–CH proton of the pyridine ring was observed in all the 1H NMR spectra. In uncoordinated ureas 1a and 1b, this proton gives signal at 8.31–8.45 ppm [46,47]. Such signal shifts are usual for azines coordinated by N atom to platinum metals [48,49], including other N–pyridylureas-based diaminocarbene complexes [17,18,29].
The signals of 195Pt are very similar (−3803 ppm for 3b and −3802 ppm for 3d) and close to relevant N–pyridylurea-based Pt(II) metallocycles (−3807–−3809 ppm) [17,18]. In the HR-mass spectra of 3a–d, [M–Cl]+ ion peaks along with the characteristic isotopic distribution were observed.
Moreover, the thermal stability of synthesized complexes 3a–d was characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The TG/DTG curves are presented in Figures S6–S9 (Supplementary Materials). As demonstrated by the TGA results, these complexes have comparable thermal stability (up to 100–120 °C), regardless of the type of heterocyclic core or metal center.

2.2. Structural Studies

The structure of complexes 3a–c (Figure 1; Figure S1, Supplementary Materials) in solid state was confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies of corresponding solvates with 1,2-dichloroethane (3a·1,2-DCE, Figure S2; 3b·1,2-DCE, Figure S3; 3c·1½1,2-DCE, Figure S4, Supplementary Materials). Details of the structure’s solution and refinement are collected in Table S1 of Supplementary Materials. Values of bond lengths and angles are presented in Table 1. Since solvates 3b·1,2-DCE and 3c·1½(1,2-DCE) contain two crystallographically independent molecules of complexes, geometrical parameters of the environment of the metal center are given for both of them.
Crystals based on the complexes bearing 1,2,4-oxadiazole moiety (3a·1,2-DCE and 3b·1,2-DCE) have the P–1 space group; whereas, in the 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivative (3c·1½1,2-DCE), the P2/n space group is realized. In general, the new complexes have the same structure as previously described: deprotonated diaminocarbene complexes with N-pyridylurea ligands [17,29]. In all cases, the metal is surrounded by three ligands: a bidentate amidine-like deprotonated diaminocarbene bearing the pyridine ring, an isocyanide, and a chloride anion, that forms slightly distorted square planar geometry.
A main packing feature of the new complexes in comparison to the early described ones [17,29] is π···π interactions between oxadiazole and pyridine moieties, similar to those studied in our recent work [47] (Figure 2 and Figure S5). The crystal structures of (3a,b)·1,2-DCE and 3c·1½(1,2-DCE) exhibit 3D networks comprising the complexes and molecules of 1,2-dichloroethane, which are linked to each other via intermolecular C–H···X (X = Cl, O) hydrogen bonds (HBs; Figures S2–S4, Supplementary Materials). The complexes are associated to each other by C–H···Cl HBs between chloride centers and H-atoms of the ligands. At the same time, the complexes form intramolecular C–H···Cl HBs between chloride ligands and Hs of the pyridine moieties (Figures S2–S4).

2.3. Citotoxicity Assay

Considering our prominent interest in the search for new anticancer metal drugs [26,50,51,52], we evaluated the activity of the obtained deprotonated diaminocarbene complexes against several tumor cell lines, namely, A549 (lung carcinoma), PANC-1 (pancreatic carcinoma), and T98G (glioblastoma) using MMT test [53]. The received values of the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) are presented in Table 2.
The analysis of cytotoxicity assay results revealed that the complexes bearing 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety (3c and 3d) exhibit more potency than the complexes with 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring (3a and 3b). Particularly, the cytotoxic effect of both 1,3,4-oxadiazole-based complexes (3c and 3d) toward T98G cells significantly exceeds the common antitumor metal-drug cisplatin (Table 2; 34.7–39.4 vs. 140 μM). Moreover, palladium(II) derivative 3c has shown slightly higher activity against PANC-1 cell line than the reference compound (10.3 vs. 16.44 μM).

3. Materials and Methods

3.1. General

N–Oxides, [PdCl2(MeCN)2], K2[PtCl4], xylyl isocyanide, dimethyl cyanamide, methanesulfonic acid, and triethanolamine were obtained from commercial sources. Ureas 1a [46] and 1b [47], cis-[PdCl2(CNXyl)2] 2a [57], and cis-[PtCl2(CNXyl)2] 2b [58] were prepared according to previously reported procedures. All solvents were obtained from commercial sources and used without preliminary purification.
1H, 13C, and 195Pt NMR spectra were registered on a Bruker AVANCE III 400 spectrometer operating at room temperature (RT) at 400, 101, and 86 MHz for 1H, 13C, and 195Pt NMR spectra, respectively. All spectra were recorded using CDCl3 as a solvent. The chemical shifts are given in δ-values [ppm]. Multiplicities are abbreviated as follows: s = singlet, d = doublet, t = triplet, m = multiplet, br = broad; coupling constants, J, are reported in Hertz (Hz). High-resolution mass spectra (HRMS) were measured on Bruker Maxis HR-MS-ESI-qTOF using ESI. The most intense peak in the isotopic pattern is reported.
TGA was performed on ca. 4 mg samples of 3a–d by using a Netzsch TG 209 F1 Libra thermal analyzer. The sample was dried under a vacuum at 50 °C before being heated from 40 to 450 °C at a heating rate of 10 K min−1. A flow rate of 10 mL min−1 of dry argon was used to purge the sample.

3.2. Synthesis and Characterization of Complexes 3a–d

Triethanolamine (0.12 mmol) was added to a mixture of the corresponding urea 1 (0.10 mmol) and cis-[MCl2(CNXyl)2] 2 (0.12 mmol) in CHCl3 (3 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 24 h. After that, the reaction mixture was filtered to remove a small amount of undissolved material (triethanolamine hydrochloride) and evaporated to dryness at 45 °C in vacuo. All obtained complexes were dissolved in dichloromethane (0.3 mL) and diluted with MeOH (1.5 mL). The formed precipitate was collected by filtration, washed with hexane, and dried in vacuo at RT.

3.3. Crystal Growth, Structure Solution and Refinement Details

All single crystalline samples were obtained via slow evaporation of 1,2-DCE solutions of corresponding complexes at room temperature. X-ray diffraction data were collected at a Rigaku XtaLAB Synergy–S (3a·1,2-DCE and 3b·1,2-DCE) and at a Rigaku SuperNova (3c·1½(1,2-DCE) diffractometers using Cu-Kα (λ = 0.154184 nm) radiation. The structures have been solved with the ShelXT [59] structure solution program using Intrinsic Phasing and refined with the ShelXL [60] refinement package incorporated in the OLEX2 program package [61] using Least Squares minimization. The carbon-bound H atoms were placed in calculated positions. Empirical absorption correction was applied in CrysAlisPro [62] program complex using spherical harmonics, implemented in SCALE3 ABSPACK scaling algorithm. Supplementary crystallographic data have been deposited at Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre: 2217791 (3a·1,2-DCE), 2217807 (3b·1,2-DCE), and 2217808 (3c·1½(1,2-DCE). They can be obtained free of charge via www.ccdc.cam.ac.uk/data_request/cif (accessed on 13 November 2022).

3.4. Cytotoxicity Evaluation

The MTT-assay (colorimetric test using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide) was performed on human lung adenocarcinoma A549, human pancreatic adenocarcinoma PANC-1, and human glioblastoma T98G cell lines to measure the cytotoxicity of complexes 3a–d. Dried powdered samples of complexes 3a–d were dissolved in DMSO to obtain stock solutions, which were immediately used for the cytotoxicity evaluation.
A total of 5000 cells per well were seeded into a 96-well plate and incubated overnight in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s culture Medium (DMEM) supplemented with 10% heat inactivated fetal calf serum (FCS) and penicillin-streptomycin (10 IU·mL−1–100 μg·mL−1). During this period, cells were attached to the surface of the wells. After this, fresh DMEM medium containing various concentrations of studied complexes 3a–d was added to the wells, and the plate was placed in an incubator, 95% humidity, 20% O2, 5% CO2, 37 °C. After 48 h, 100 μL DMEM and 20 μL MTT-reagent (0.5 mg·mL−1) were added to the wells and continued to incubate for 1 h. The supernatant was then removed, the formazan crystals formed during MTT recovery by viable cells were dissolved in DMSO, and the optical density was measured on a Allsheng AMR-100 microplate photometer (Hangzhou, China) at λ = 540 nm (subtracting background optical density at λ = 700 nm) [53].
The data presented were obtained from three independent experiments, and the values for IC50 are mean ± SD.

4. Conclusions

Thus, we have shown that our proposed methodology for the synthesis of (C^N)-cyclometallated complexes of platinum metals by metal mediated coupling of isocyanides with substituted N-(pyridine-2-yl) ureas makes it easy to incorporate privileged biological heterocyclic motifs into metal complexes. In this work, we synthesized four cyclometallated complexes with oxadiazole cores. These complexes indeed showed cytotoxic activity. The complexes bearing 1,3,4-oxadiazole moiety exhibit more potency than the ones with 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring. Particularly, the cytotoxic effect of both 1,3,4-oxadiazole-based complexes (3c and 3d) towards T98G cells significantly exceeds the common antitumor metal-drug cisplatin.
