Ru(II)‐arene compounds are being investigated as anticancer agents due to the biocompatibility of ruthenium and their structural diversity. Two newly synthesized Ru(II) complexes, [RuCl(η6‐p‐cymene)(3‐DNPH)] (chlorido(η6‐p‐cymene)(3‐nitrophenylhydrazine‐k2N,N′)ruthenium(II)) (1) and [RuCl(η6‐p‐cymene)(3‐CNPH)] (chlorido(3‐chlorophenylhydrazine‐k2N,N′)(η6‐p‐cymene)ruthenium(II)) (2), are experimentally (IR, NMR) and theoretically (B3LYP/6‐31+G(d,p)(H,C,N,Cl)/LanL2DZ(Ru)) characterized. Experimental and theoretical values of 1H and 13C chemical shifts and position of the most intense vibrational bands showed high correlation coefficients and low mean absolute errors, proving the predicted structure and applicability of the selected level of theory. Cell viability studies performed on MDA‐MB‐468, BT‐474, and PC3 cells using MTT and CV assay indicated the activity of the second complex similar to the activity of cisplatin towards BT‐474 breast cancer cells. The spectrofluorimetric measurements of Bovine Serum Albumin showed the binding process‘s spontaneity of complexes and protein, with a binding energy of around −30 kJ mol−1. Detailed molecular docking analysis allowed the elucidation of the binding mechanism through specific intermolecular interactions. Both compounds showed a higher affinity towards BSA than naproxen and cisplatin. Molecular docking simulations proved the spontaneity of the complexes binding to DNA. Based on these promising results, further biological examinations of these compounds are advised.Graphical Abstract The cytotoxicity, protein binding affinity, interactions with DNA, spectral and structural features of two new Ru(II) compounds, [RuCl(η6-p-cymene)(3-DNPH)] chlorido(η6-p-cymene)(3-nitrophenylhydrazine-k2N,N′)ruthenium(II) and [RuCl(η6-p-cymene)(3-CNPH)] chlorido(3-chlorophenylhydrazine-k2N,N′)(η6-p-cymene)ruthenium(II), are examined experimentally and theoretically.

S.; Comparison of Balanites aegyptiaca parts: metabolome providing insights into plant health benefits and valorization purposes as analyzed using multiplex GC-MS, LC-MS, NMR-based metabolomics, and molecular networking RSC Adv. 13 21471-21493 (2023) DOI: 10.1039/d3ra03141a

Balanites aegyptiaca (L.) Delile (Zygophyllaceae), also known as the desert date, is an edible fruit-producing tree popular for its nutritional and several health benefits. In this study, multi-targeted comparative metabolic profiling and fingerprinting approaches were conducted for the assessment of the nutrient primary and secondary metabolite heterogeneity in different parts, such as leaves, stems, seeds, unripe, and ripe fruits of B. aegyptiaca using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC-MS), and gas chromatography mass-spectrometry (GC-MS) based metabolomics coupled to multivariate analyses and in relation to its cytotoxic activities. NMR-based metabolomic study identified and quantified 15 major primary and secondary metabolites belonging to alkaloids, saponins, flavonoids, sugars, and amino and fatty acids. Principal component analysis (PCA) of the NMR dataset revealed α-glucose, sucrose, and isorhamnetin as markers for fruit and stem and unsaturated fatty acids for predominated seeds. Orthogonal projections to latent structure discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) revealed trigonelline as a major distinctive metabolite in the immature fruit and isorhamnetin as a major distinct marker in the mature fruit. UPLC-MS/MS analysis using feature-based molecular networks revealed diverse chemical classes viz. steroidal saponins, N-containing metabolites, phenolics, fatty acids, and lipids as the constitutive metabolome in Balanites. Gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) profiling of primary metabolites led to the detection of 135 peaks belonging to sugars, fatty acids/esters, amino acids, nitrogenous, and organic acids. Monosaccharides were detected at much higher levels in ripe fruit and disaccharides in predominate unripe fruits, whereas B. aegyptiaca vegetative parts (leaves and stem) were rich in amino acids and fatty acids. The antidiabetic compounds, viz, nicotinic acid, and trigonelline, were detected in all parts especially unripe fruit in addition to the sugar alcohol D-pinitol for the first time providing novel evidence for B. aegyptiaca use in diabetes. In vitro cytotoxic activity revealed the potential efficacy of immature fruit and seeds as cytotoxic agents against human prostate cancer (PC3) and human colorectal cancer (HCT-116) cell lines. Collectively, such detailed profiling of parts provides novel evidence for B. aegyptiaca medicinal uses.
