Abstract: The stability constants for the formation of nickel(II) and cobalt(II) complexes of the ligand [1,4,7]triazecan-9-ol (L) were presented. Antitumor activity of two complexes was reported. Nuclei of [NiL]-stimulated BEL-7402 cells clearly exhibited condensation and break down into chromatin clumps typical of apoptosis. Also it exhibited perturbation effects to cell cycle, and optimal induction of apoptosis was found by Flow-Cytometric analysis. But CoL complex did not exhibit introduction effects to BEL-7402 cells apoptosis; and could not perturb cell cycle. NiL and CuL complexes could cleave supercoiled DNA (pBR 322 DNA) to nicked and linear DNA, and DNA of cells treated with NiL or CuL complex was obviously damaged; while CoL complex only could cleave supercoiled DNA (pBR 322 DNA) to nicked DNA, and DNA of cells treated with CoL complex had no significant difference with control.
