A new Ru-N-heterocyclic carbene (Ru-NHC) complex (3a), chloro(p-cymene)-1-methyl-3-pyrimidylimidazolideneruthenium(II)- hexafluorophosphate was synthesized from a non-annulated NHC precursor,1-methyl-3-pyrimidylimidazoli um­hexafluorophosphate (3). The half-sandwich geometry of the molecule is established with single crystals X-ray diffraction. The absorption spectra and electrochemical nature of the complex are also investigated, supported by DFT analysis. Compound 3a is applied on lung (A549), colon (HCT116), and breast (MCF7) cancer cells to examine their in vitro cytotoxicity activity, and results are summarized and compared with a recent report for Ru(II)-NHC complexes containing annulated NHC ligands.
