The potential of ruthenium (II) compounds as an alternative to platinum-based clinical anticancer agents has been unveiled after extensive research for over two decades. As opposed to cisplatin, Ru(II) compounds have distinct mechanisms of action that do not rely solely on interactions with DNA. In previous report from our group, we described the synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation of a cationic, water-soluble, organometallic ruthenium(II) iminophosphorane (IM) complex of p-cymene, ([(η6-p-Cymene)Ru{(Ph3P=N-CO-2N-C5H4)-κ-N,O}Cl]Cl (1), Ru-IM) that was found to be highly cytotoxic against a panel of cell lines resistant to cisplatin, including triple negative breast cancer MDA-MB-231, through canonical or caspase-dependent apoptosis. Studies on a MDA-MB-231 xenograft mice model (after 28 days of treatment) afforded an excellent tumor reduction of 56%, with almost negligible systemic toxicity, and a favored Ru tumor accumulation when compared to other organs. Ru-IM (1) is known to only interact weakly with DNA, but its intracellular distribution and ultimate targets remain unknown. To get an insight on potential mechanisms for this highly efficacious Ru compound, we have developed two luminescent analogues containing the BOPIPY fluorophore (or a modification) in the iminophosphorane scaffold with the general structure of [(η6-p-cymene)Ru{(BODIPY-Ph2P=N-CO-2-N-C5H4)-κ-N,O}Cl]Cl (BODIPY-Ph2P: 48-((4-Diphenylphosphino)phenyl)-4,4-dimethyl-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-2,6-diethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (3a); and 4,4-difluoro-8-(4-((2-(4-(diphenylphosphino)-benzamido)ethyl)carbamoyl)phenyl)-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl,2,6-diethyl,4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (3b). We report on the synthesis, characterization, lipophilicity, stability, luminescence properties, and cell viability studies in the TNBC cell line MDA-MB-231, non-malignant breast cells (MCF10A) and lung fibroblasts (IMR-90) of the new compounds. Ruthenium derivative 3b was studied by fluorescence confocal microscopy. These studies point to a preferential accumulation of the compound in the endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria and lysosomes. ICP-OES analysis also confirms a greater Ru accumulation in the cytoplasmic fraction, including ER and lysosomes, and a smaller percentage of accumulation in mitochondria and nucleus. ICP-OES analysis of the parent compound Ru-IM (1) indicates preferential mitochondrial and cytoplasmic accumulation. mitochondria and cytoplasm. Subsequent experiments in Ru-IM (1) treated MDA-MB-231 cells demonstrate significant reactive oxygen species generation.
