In vitro cytotoxicity of the tested complexes 16 and cisplatin against the A549 cell line. The cells were plated at 96-well dishes and cultured according manufacturer instructions. The tested compounds were applied to the cells for 24 h in concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 50 M. The tested compounds were applied to the cells for 24 h. The cytotoxicity was assessed by the MTT test, measurements were performed in triplicate, and each cytotoxicity experiment was repeated three times. The data are expressed as IC50 SD (μM). The symbol (*) denotes significant differences of IC50 values (p < 0.05) for 16 as compared to cisplatin. The full symbols (■) and () indicate that the compound 5, and 6, respectively, showed significant differences in the IC50 values (p < 0.05) to those compounds marked with the corresponding empty symbols (□) for 2 and (○) for 14. 2 Figure S2.
