Biological evaluations demonstrated that both complexes exhibit enhanced anticancer activity compared to the free ligand, with IC<sub>50</sub> values ranging between 18.93 and 67.06 µ<em>M</em>. Notably, the Cu<sup>II</sup> complex displays excellent inhibitory activity against the MCF7 breast cancer cell line (IC<sub>50</sub> = 27.99 µ<em>M</em>), approximately twice as effective as cisplatin. Conversely, the <strong>ZnT4</strong> complex shows greater efficacy against Hep-G2 and A549 lung cancer cell lines, with IC<sub>50</sub> values between 18.93 and 24.83 µ<em>M</em>.
