Abstract
The highly cytotoxic diruthenium complex [(p-MeC(6)H(4)Pr(i))(2)Ru(2)(SC(6)H(4)-p-Me)(3)](+) (1), water-soluble as the chloride salt, is shown to efficiently catalyze oxidation of the thiols cysteine and glutathione to give the corresponding disulfides, which may explain its high in vitro anticancer activity.Entities:
