Numerous therapies for the treatment of cancer have been explored with increasing evidence that the use of metal-containing compounds could prove advantageous as anticancer therapeutics. Previous works on Ru(III) complexes suggest that structurally similar Co(III) complexes may provide good alternative, low-cost, effective prodrugs. Herein, a new complex, <i>trans</i>-[Co(imidazole)<sub>4</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub>]Cl (<b>2</b>), has been synthesized in high yields utilizing ligand exchange under reflu ...[more]
