1,10-Phenanthroline-2,9-dicarbaldehyde is a supramolecular complex that has been shown to have anticancer activity. It has been shown to inhibit the proliferation of mcf-7 cells and induce apoptosis in these cells. The compound also exhibits cytotoxic effects against other cancer cell lines. 1,10-Phenanthroline-2,9-dicarbaldehyde is an amine molecule that binds copper ions. This binding prevents the formation of reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial membrane potential. 1,10-Phenanthroline-2,9-dicarbaldehyde can also be used as a probe for microscopy experiments as it has a very high extinction coefficient at 400 nm.
