To our previously reported first crystal structure of a homoleptic zinc curcuminoid complex with square pyramidal geometry, we add herein three new geometries of homoleptic type complexes i.e. octahedral, trigonal-pyramidal, and trigonal-bipyramidal. Octahedral geometry was observed in the new pseudo-polymorph of the DAC-Zn complex resulting from crystallization in DMF, while square-pyramidal geometry was obtained in DMSO. Improving crystallinity involved suppressing the phenolic interactions by etherification and esterification. The complete characterization of these complexes was carried out using SCXRD, IR, MS, EA, liquid, and solid-state NMR. Moreover, the cytotoxic activity of all complexes was evaluated. The IC50 values for the DiMeOC-Zn (7) complex were 8 or 22 times higher than for cisplatin in the U251 and HCT-15 cell lines, indicating a high antiproliferative and therapeutic potential.
