Abstract	The ruthenium(II) ferrocenyl heterocyclic thiosemicarbazone complexes of the type [RuCl(CO)(EPh3)]2L (where E = P/As; L = binucleating monobasic tridendate thiosemicarbazone ligand) have been investigated. Strutural features were determined by analytical and spectral techniques. Binding of these complexes with CTDNA by absorption spectral study indicates that the ruthenium(II) complexes form adducts with DNA and has intrinsic binding constant in the range of 3.3 × 104 - 1.2 × 105 M−1. The complexes exhibit a remarkable DNA cleavage activity with CT-DNA in the presence of hydrogen oxide and the cleavage activity depends on dosage.
