Compound 1 [1-imino (acetyl hydrazino)-Vitamin K-3], displays valence tautomerically related electronic isomers as Form land Form II. Form I exhibits 2D packing fragment with 1D ribbon chains of N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds and shows EPR silent features. While Form II is EPR active and exhibits biradical nature with double quantum transitions at g = 2.0040. H-1 NMR of compound 2, [1-imino (hydrazino carboxylate)-Vitamin K-3] and Form II exhibit pi delocalization via resonance assisted H-bonding [RAHB] effect compared to Form I. Molecular interactions in Form I and II are visualized by DSC. The electronic structures of compounds 1 and 2 have been correlated to their API values by measuring anticancer activities, mitochondrial potentials and DNA shearing patterns. Form II and compound 2 indicate mitochondria mediated apoptosis (similar to 75\% cell death) while Form I causes 35\% cell death. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
