Abstract
The structures of new p-cymene Ru(II) complexes with 2-(1-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)pyridine and 2-(1-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)pyridine were established based on the results of elemental analysis; IR and NMR spectra; and X-ray diffraction studies. Their anticancer activity, tested on human ovarian cancer cell lines A2780 (cisplatin-sensitive) and A2780cis (cisplatin-resistant), is also reported. Graphical abstract
