Abstract
In this work, two analogous coumarin-thio and semicarbazone hybrid compounds were prepared and evaluated as a potential antichagasic agents. Furthermore, palladium and platinum complexes with the thiosemicarbazone derivative as ligand (L1) were obtained in order to establish the effect of metal complexation on the antiparasitic activity. All compounds were fully characterized both in solution and in solid state including the resolution of the crystal structure of the palladium complex by X-ray diffraction methods. Unexpectedly, all experimental and theoretical characterizations in the solid state, demonstrated that the obtained palladium and platinum complexes are structurally different: [PdCl(L1)] and [PtCl2(HL1)]. All the studied compounds lower the proliferation of the amastigote form of Trypanosoma cruzi while some of them also have an effect on the trypomastigote stage. Additionally, the compounds inhibit T. cruzi release from host cells in variable extents. The Pd compound presented a remarkable profile in all the in vitro experiments, and it showed no toxicity for mammalian cells in the assayed concentrations. In this sense, in vivo experiments were performed for this compound using an acute model of Chagas disease. Results showed that the complex significantly lowered the parasite count in the mice blood with no significant toxicity.

Abstract
A novel fluorescent ligand (H2LCl⋅1.5CH3OH, 1) was synthesized and metal complexes of 1 with Mn(II), Fe(III), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) were obtained as Mn(HL)2Cl2 (2), Fe(HL)2Cl3⋅3H2O (3), Ni(L)(HL)Cl⋅8H2O (4), Cu(HL)Cl2⋅4H2O (5), Zn(H2L)Cl3 (6), respectively. These compounds were identified by spectroscopic methods, elemental analysis, molar conductivity, and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. According to the crystal structure of 4 nickel (II), center is surrounded by two ligands in a distorted octahedral geometry. The ligand and its complexes are soluble in water and have excellent stability. In vitro anti-proliferative activity of these compounds was evaluated against human breast adenocarcinoma (MCF-7) and human lipo-sarcoma (SW-872) as cancer cells and human fibroblasts (HFF-2) as normal cells by MTT assay. Interestingly, complex 5 exhibited excellent activity against both cancer cells with low IC50 value 22.18 ± 0.35 μg/mL (35.66 ± 0.56 μM) for SW-872 and 79.41 ± 3.54 μg/mL (127.6 ± 5.69 μM) for MCF-7 among the compounds and in comparison with paclitaxel (PTX) which acts finely. Morphological changes were evaluated by flow cytometry that revealed apoptosis is the main cause of cell death. Likewise, cell cycle studies indicated the cell cycle arrest in the G1 and S phases for complex 5 against MCF-7 and SW-872 cancer cells, while complex 6 could arrest the MCF-7 and SW-872 cells in G2 and G1 phases, respectively. All of the compounds are fluorescent which enabled us to monitor the uptake and intracellular distribution in living human cancer cells by fluorescence microscopy.

Abstract
Metal complexes have numerous applications in the current era, particularly in the field of pharmaceutical chemistry and catalysis. A novel synthetic approach for the same is always a beneficial addition to the literature. Henceforth, for the first time, we report the formation of three new Pd(II) complexes through the Michael addition pathway. Three chromone-based thiosemicarbazone ligands (SVSL1-SVSL3) and Pd(II) complexes (1-3) were synthesized and characterized by analytical and spectroscopic tools. The Michael addition pathway for the formation of complexes was confirmed by spectroscopic studies. Distorted square planar structure of complex 2 was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Complexes 1-3 were subjected to DNA- and BSA-binding studies. The complex with cyclohexyl substituent on the terminal N of thiosemicarbazone (3) showed the highest binding efficacy toward these biomolecules, which was further understood through molecular docking studies. The anticancer potential of these complexes was studied preliminarily by using MTT assay in cancer and normal cell lines along with the benchmark drugs (cisplatin, carboplatin, and gemcitabine). It was found that complex 3 was highly toxic toward MDA-MB-231 and AsPC-1 cancer cells with IC50 values of 0.5 and 0.9 μM, respectively, and was more efficient than the standard drugs. The programmed cell death mechanism of the complexes in MDA-MB-231 cancer cells was confirmed. Furthermore, the complexes induced apoptosis via ROS-mediated mitochondrial signaling pathway. Conveniently, all the complexes showed less toxicity (≥50 μM) against MCF-10a normal cell line. Molecular docking studies were performed with VEGFR2, EGFR, and SARS-CoV-2 main protease to illustrate the binding efficiency of the complexes with these receptors. To our surprise, binding potential of the complexes with SARS-CoV-2 main protease was higher than that with chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine.

Abstract
Two novel pyrazole based thiourea palladium(II) complexes, [PdCl(PPh3)(C9H8NO2S-pz)] (1) and [PdCl(PPh3)(C14H10NO2S-pz)] (2) [pz = pyrazole (C3H2N2)] have been obtained unexpectedly from chromone thiosemicarbazones (L1 and L2) and [PdCl2(PPh3)2]. The compounds have been fully characterized by physicochemical studies. The single crystal X-ray diffraction and spectral studies revealed square planar geometry for the complexes. The conversion of chromone thiosemicarbazone into pyrazole based thiourea might have happened through coordination to palladium(II) ion after enolization, Michael addition and ring opening followed by cyclization. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report for the conversion of chromone thiosemicarbazone into pyrazole based thiourea moiety. Plausible mechanism was proposed based on the spectroscopic studies. Calf thymus (CT) DNA binding of the compounds was explored using various spectroscopic and molecular docking methods. DNA cleavage studies suggested that complexes 1 and 2 had the capacity to cleave the supercoiled DNA (pUC19) to its naked form. In vitro cytotoxic property of the ligands and complexes has been evaluated against three human cancer cells such as A549, HepG-2 and U937. Complex 2 exhibited potent cytotoxic activity against HepG-2 cells with the IC50 value of 10.4 μM. In addition, mechanistic studies showed that complex 2 induced apoptosis through mitochondrial signaling pathway in HepG-2 cells. Beneficially, complex 2 showed less toxicity against human lung (IMR90) normal cells and hence it emerges as a potential candidate for further studies.
