Bismuth– and lead–texaphyrin complexes: towards potential α-core emitters for radiotherapy

Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: Lead(II)-texaphyrins and the first discrete binuclear μ-oxo bismuth(III)-texaphyrin are reported. The latter was characterized via single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Cell proliferation assays using the A2780 ovarian cancer cell line were used to determine the cytotoxicity of the complexes.
