Towards the development of non-platinum antitumor compounds, a series of mixed metal macrocyclic complexes were synthesized. A macrocyclic oxyimine ligand was used as a template for a series of symmetric and asymmetric dinuclear complexes of copper, nickel, and zinc. Potentially active in the binding and hydrolysis of DNA, the synthesis, structure, and characterization of these complexes will be discussed.
