In order to improve the water-solubility of dinuclear thiolato-bridged arene ruthenium complexes, a new series was synthesized by conjugating octaarginine, octalysine, and cyclo[Lys-Arg-Gly-Asp-D-Phe] using chloroacetyl thioether (ClAc) ligation, resulting in cytotoxic conjugates against A2780 human ovarian cancer cells (IC50 = 2–8 μM) and against the cisplatin resistant line A2780cisR (IC50 = 7–15 μM). These metal complexes represent, to the best of our knowledge, the most cytotoxic ruthenium bioconjugates reported so far.
