Abstrakt: Complexes [Sb(QN)Cl] ( 1), [Sb(QC)Cl] ( 2) and [Sb(QI)Cl] ( 3) were obtained with 8-hydroxyquinoline (HQN), 5-chloro-8-hydroxyquinoline (HQC) and 5-chloro-7-iodo-8-hydroxyquinoline (clioquinol, HQI). The quinoline derivatives and their antimony(III) complexes were evaluated for their anti-trypanosomal activity as well as for their cytotoxicity against HL-60 and Jurkat human leukemia cell lines. Upon coordination to antimony(III) the anti-trypanosomal activity of HQC and HQI increases, the highest improvement being observed for complex ( 3), which was the most active among all studied compounds against both epimastigote and trypomastigote forms of Trypanosoma cruzi. All quinoline derivatives proved to be cytotoxic against both leukemia cell lineages. Upon coordination to antimony(III) the cytotoxicity of HQN improved against Jurkat leukemia cells. While SbCl proved to be cytotoxic against HL-60 cells, it was not active against Jurkat cells. However, its coordination to the quinoline derivatives resulted in complexes with significant cytotoxicity against Jurkat cells. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
