Some new mixed ligand peroxo complexes of U(VI) and Mo(VI) with amino acids and heterocyclic amines have been synthesized. The complexes have been obtained to be [MO(O2)(DA)2L], Where, M= (VI), Mo(VI); DA=deprotonated amino acid such as valine, cysteine; L=heterocyclic amines such as quinoline, isoquinoline, 8-hydoxyquinoline, 1.10-phenanthroline, pyridine, 2-aminopyridine. Cytotoxic activities of the complexes have been examined against brine shrimp nauplii. U(VI) complexes were found to be more toxic to brine shrimp then Mo(VI) complexes.
