A new insulin-enhancing oxovanadium complex 5-chloro-salicylaldhyde ethylenediamine oxovanadium (V) ([V(2)O(2)(mu-O)(2)L(2)]) has been synthesized. The complex was characterized by a variety of physical methods, including X-ray crystallography. The X-ray diffraction analysis show a dinuclear complex of two six-coordinate vanadium centers doubly bridged by the oxygen atoms of the Schiff base ligand with a V(2)O(2) diamond core. The complex was administered intragastrically to STZ-diabetic rats for 2 weeks. The biological activity results show that the complex at the dose of 10.0 and 20.0 mg V kg(-1), could significantly decrease the blood glucose level and ameliorate impaired glucose tolerance in STZ-diabetic rats. That results suggested that the complex exerts an antidiabetic effect in STZ-diabetic rats. Furthermore, the complex ([V(2)O(2)(mu-O)(2)L(2)]) had permeability above 10(-5)cm/s. The experimental results suggested that the vanadium complex permeates via a passive diffusion mechanism. It was also suggested the complex with salen-type ligands has good lipophilic properties and better oral administration. The cytotoxicity of the complex ([V(2)O(2)(mu-O)(2)L(2)]) on Caco-2 cells was measured by a decrease of cell viability using the MTT assay suggesting that the chlorine atom at C4 of complex [V(2)O(2)(mu-O)(2)L(2)] increased cytotoxicity for vanadium complexes.
