The treatment of cis-[PtCl2(XylNC)2] with thiazol-2-amines in a 2:1 ratio leads to regioisomeric mixture two binuclear complexes. These regioisomers are products kinetic and thermodynamic control capable regioisomerization. When the same reaction is carried out 5-fold excess thiazol-2-amine, nucleophile able react situ-formed platinum(II) complexes, yielding new type bis-carbene platinum specie...

metal—polyaniline nanocomposites such as platinum-polyaniline nanocomposite is prepared by insitu oxidative polymerization of aniline and reduction of pt+4 ions into pt nanoparticles. thepolymerization of aniline was carried out in the presence of 1(2ptcn6 [potassium hexa cyanoplatinate (iv)] as oxidizing agent. during the reaction aniline monomers undergo oxidation andform polyaniline (pant) w...

The encapsulation of cisplatin by cucurbit[7]uril (Q[7]) and multinuclear platinum complexes linked via a 4,4'-dipyrazolylmethane (dpzm) ligand by Q[7] and cucurbit[8]uril (Q[8]) has been studied by NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling. The NMR studies suggest that some cisplatin binds in the cucurbituril cavity, while cis-[PtCl(NH3)2(H2O)]+ only binds at the portals. Alternatively, the dpz...

The presence of cis-configured exchangeable ligands has long been considered a prerequisite for antitumor activity of platinum complexes, but over the past few years, several examples violating this structure-activity relationship have been recognized. We report here on studies with the geometric isomers of [PtCl2(acetoxime)2], cis-[dichlorobis(acetoxime)platinum(II)] [1 (cis)] and trans-[dichl...

It has been shown recently that some analogues of clinically ineffective trans-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) (transplatin) exhibit antitumor activity. This finding has inverted the empirical structure-antitumor activity relationships delineated for platinum(II) complexes, according to which only the cis geometry of leaving ligands in the bifunctional platinum complexes is therapeutically active...

Five oxaliplatin-typed platinum complexes containing trans-1R, 2R-diaminocyclohexane chelating platinum cores, characteristic of linear or branched alkoxycarboxylates as leaving groups, were biologically evaluated. These compounds showed higher antitumor activity, lower toxicity in vivo than cisplatin or oxaliplatin. And the results revealed that the antitumor activity and interaction with DNA ...

Platinum complexes remain widely used to combat various types of cancers. Three platinum complexes, cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplatin, are marketed for various oncological purposes. Additionally, nedaplatin, lobaplatin and heptaplatin have gained regionally limited approval for oncology purposes. Furthermore, various platinum derivatives are currently under clinical trials. More than 40 ye...

The antineoplastic platinum complexes cisplatin and its analogues are widely used in the chemotherapy of a variety of human malignancies, and are especially active against several types of cancers. Nedaplatin is a second-generation platinum complex with reduced nephrotoxicity. However, their use commonly causes nephrotoxicity due to a lack of tumor tissue selectivity. Several recent studies hav...

A series of six novel bis(carboxylato)dichloridobis(ethylamine)platinum(IV) complexes was synthesized and characterized in detail by elemental analysis, FT-IR, ESI-MS, HPLC, multinuclear ((1)H, (13)C, (15)N, (195)Pt) NMR spectroscopy and in one case by X-ray diffraction. Cytotoxic properties of the complexes were evaluated in four human tumor cell lines originating from ovarian carcinoma (CH1 a...

The widespread use of platinum in high-tech and catalytic applications has led to the production of diverse Pt loaded wastewaters. Effective recovery strategies are needed for the treatment of low concentrated waste streams to prevent pollution and to stimulate recovery of this precious resource. The biological recovery of five common environmental Pt-complexes was studied under acidic conditio...
