They can also be employed as scaffolds for the design and construction of a variety of ligands in order to coordinate them to metallic drugs. The coordination chemistry of the (amino)cyclotriphosphazene ligand, [N3P3(NHCy)6], towards gold(I) complexes has been studied. Neutral complexes, [N3P3(NHCy)6{AuX}n] (X = Cl or C6F5; n = 1 or 2) (1–4), cationic complexes, [N3P3(NHCy)6{Au(PR3)}n](NO3)n (PR3 = PPh3, PPh2Me, TPA; n = 1, 2 or 3) (6–12) [TPA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane] and a heterometallic compound [N3P3(NHCy)6{Au(PPh3)}2{Ag(PPh3)}](NO3)3 (13) have been obtained and characterized by various methods including single-crystal X-ray diffraction for 7, which confirms the coordination of gold atoms to the nitrogens of the phosphazene ring. Compounds 1, 4, 6–13 were screened for in vitro cytotoxic activity against two tumor human cell lines, MCF7 (breast adenocarcinoma) and HepG2 (hepatocellular carcinoma), and for antimicrobial activity against five bacterial species including Gram-positive, Gram-negative, and Mycobacteria. Both the median inhibitory concentration (IC50) and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values are among the lowest found for any gold or silver derivatives against the cell lines and particularly against the Gram-positive (S. aureus) strain and the mycobacteria used in this work. Structure–activity relationships are discussed in order to determine the influence of ancillary ligands and the number and type of metal atoms (silver or gold). Compounds 4 and 8 showed not only maximal potency on human cells but also some tumour selectivity. Remarkably, compound 13, with both gold and silver atoms, showed outstanding activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains (nanomolar range), thus having a cooperative effect between gold and silver, with MIC values which are similar or lower than those of gentamicine, ciprofloxacin and rifampicine. The broad spectrum antimicrobial efficacy of all these metallophosphazenes and particularly of heterometallic compound 13 could be very useful to obtain materials for surfaces with antimicrobial properties that are increasingly in demand. 000130600 536__ $$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/B25-20R$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/E47-20R$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA-FEDER/Construyendo Europa desde Aragón$$9info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MINECO/MAT2017-84838-P 000130600 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aAll rights reserved$$uhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 000130600 590__ $$a4.0$$b2022 000130600 591__ $$aCHEMISTRY, INORGANIC & NUCLEAR$$b7 / 42 = 0.167$$c2022$$dQ1$$eT1 000130600 592__ $$a0.79$$b2022 000130600 593__ $$aInorganic Chemistry$$c2022$$dQ1 000130600 594__ $$a7.1$$b2022 000130600 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion 000130600 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0003-1027-7583$$aOtal, Isabel$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000130600 700__ $$aMaisanaba, Sara 000130600 700__ $$aLlana-Ruiz-Cabello, María 000130600 700__ $$aValero, Eva 000130600 700__ $$aRepetto, Guillermo 000130600 700__ $$aJones, Peter G. 000130600 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-0922-5615$$aOriol, Luis$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000130600 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-3444-0851$$aJiménez, Josefina$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000130600 7102_ $$12010$$2760$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
