A series of phenol-based mixed-ligand copper(II) complexes of the type [CuL 1–4 (diimine)] ( 1 – 8 ), where L 1–4 = N 1 ,N 2 -bis(5-substituted-2-hydroxybenzylidene)-1,2-ethylene/phenylenediimine and diimine = 2,2′-bipyridyl (bpy) or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), have been isolated and fully characterized by analytical and spectral techniques. Electronic spectra of complexes suggest Cu(II) cation has a d 9 electronic configuration, adopting distorted octahedral geometry with axial elongation, due to Jahn–Teller effect. Electrochemical studies of complexes evidenced one-electron irreversible reduction wave in the cathodic region. The observed rate constant ( k ) values for the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenylphosphate (4-NPP) are in the range of 0.25–3.82 × 10 −2 min −1 . The obtained room temperature magnetic moment values (1.79–1.90 BM) lies within the range observed for octahedral copper(II) complexes. Antioxidant studies revealed that these complexes possess considerable radical scavenging potency against DPPH. The binding studies of complexes with calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) revealed intercalation with minor-groove binding, and the complex 4 exhibits highest binding activity than the other complexes. The cleavage activity on supercoiled pBR322 DNA revealed the involvement of hydroxyl radical and singlet-oxygen as reactive oxygen species, and complexes encourage binding to minor-groove. Further, the cytotoxicity of complex 4 on human hepatocellular liver carcinoma HepG2 cell line implies the cell death through apoptosis.
