摘要: Abstract Iridium-based anticancer reagents are receiving increasing attention for their high cytotoxicity. Herein, by activating C H bonds in the well-known antioxidant α-phenyl- N -tert-butylnitrone (PBN), we synthesized and characterized a series of new iridium complexes. Complex 1-AMP exhibited best antiproliferation activity towards human ovarian cancer A2780 cells. The azide group complex underwent Cu(I)-catalysed azide − alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction resulting fluorescent imaging cells suggested it mainly accumulated mitochondria. In comparison, to eliminate cytotoxicity Cu(I) catalyst, conducted between commercialized dye via strain-promoted alkyne–azide (SPAAC) live cells, confirming its targeting complexes containing nitrone ligand may offer useful tool probe mechanism metallodrugs.
