The interactions of (-)-(R)-2-aminomethylpyrrolidine (1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylato)platinum(II) monohydrate (DWA2114R) and related compounds with deoxyribonucleic acid.

The interactions of a new antitumor platinum (Pt) complex, (-)-(R)-2-aminomethylpyrrolidine(1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylato++ +) platinum(II) monohydrate (DWA2114R, 2) and its related compounds, cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (CDDP, 1), trans-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (TDDP, 3), (+)-(S)-2-aminomethylpyrrolidine(1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylato++ +) platinum(II) monohydrate (DWA2114S, 4), (R)-2-aminomethylpyrrolidinedichloroplatinum(II) (5) and cis-diammine(1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylato)platinum(II) (CBDCA, 6), with calf-thymus deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and DNA nucleosides were investigated by ultraviolet (UV) and circular dichroism (CD) spectrometry. The UV spectra of the DNAs treated with these Pt complexes exhibited both bathochromic shift and hyperchromicity, showing a binding of Pt to the heterocyclic groups of these DNA as well as an alteration in the secondary structure of DNA. The reaction rates of the Pt complexes with DNA, however, differed from one another, and the order was CDDP, TDDP, 5 much greater than DWA2114R, S greater than CBDCA. The CD spectra of the DNAs treated with the Pt complexes, except TDDP, at a low Pt ratio (less than approximately (ca.) 0.1 of Pt bound to DNA/DNA base molar ratio) exhibited an increase of ellipticity at ca. 275 nm. The melting temperature of the DNAs treated with DWA2114R or CDDP were almost the same as the native DNA, while the melting temperature with TDDP was higher by 7-8 degrees C than that of the native DNA. All the Pt complexes reacted with 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG), 2'-deoxyadenosine and 2'-deoxycytidine, but none reacted with thymidine. The CD spectral change of the dG was largest. DWA2114R reacted faster with dG than other nucleosides.     

Synthesis and antiproliferative activity of (1R,2R)-N1-(2-butyl)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine platinum(II) complexes with malonate derivatives

Three new platinum(II) complexes of (1R,2R)-N¹-(2-butyl)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine with malonate derivatives as leaving groups have been synthesized and spectrally characterized. They were tested in vitro against four human cancer cell lines. [(1R,2R)-N¹-(2-butyl)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine-N,N′](2-ethylmalonato-O,O′)platinum(II) turned out to be more active (IC₅₀ = 4.65 μM) than oxaliplatin (IC₅₀ = 6.55 μM) against the MCF-7 cell line and is superior to its parent complex, [(1R,2R)-N¹-(2-butyl)-1,2-cyclohexanediamine-N,N′](malonato-O,O′)platinum(II). In addition, agarose gel electrophoresis study revealed that the interaction of the complex with pET22b plasmid DNA had a different behavior from that of cisplatin or oxaliplatin.     

Synthesis, structure and antitumor activity of a water-soluble platinum complex, (1R,3R,4R,5R)-(-)-quinato(1R,2R-cyclohexanediamine)platinum (II).

The reaction of dihydroxo(1R,2R-cyclohexanediamine)platinum(II) with (-)-quinic acid gave a water soluble complex, (-)-quinato(1R,2R-cyclohexanediamine)platinum(II). The crystal structure of the complex was determined by X-ray analysis. The data indicate a chelation of the alpha-hydroxycarboxylic acid part of quinic acid to platinum(II). The complex shows moderate antitumor activity against murine leukemia L1210 at high doses (T/C x 100 = 179% at a dose of 200 mg/kg).     

Reaction of (dichloro)(1,5-cyclooctadiene)platinum(II) with dimethyl diazomethylphosphonate. Crystal structure analysis of a bis-insertion product, (R,R)-bis[chloro(dimethoxyphosphonyl)methyl]-(1,5-cyclooctadiene)platinum(II)

The reaction of dichloro(1,5-cyclooctadiene)platinum(II), 1 with dimethyl diazomethylphosphonate, 2, results in the formation of products of insertion of the carbene moiety into one or both PtCl bonds. An X-ray diffraction study of a crystal obtained from the major bis-insertion product of this reaction shows it to be (R,R)-bis[chloro(dimethoxyphosphonyl)methylyl](1,5-cyclooetadiene)platinum(II), 5. The space group is polar indicating that spontaneous resolution has occurred upon crystallization.     

1,1-ethylenedithiolato complexes of palladium(II) and platinum(II) with isocyanide and carbene ligands

The reactions of [Tl(2)[S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)]](n) with [MCl(2)(NCPh)(2)] and CNR (1:1:2) give complexes [M[eta(2)-S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)](CNR)(2)] [R = (t)Bu, M = Pd (1a), Pt (1b); R = C(6)H(3)Me(2)-2,6 (Xy), M = Pd (2a), Pt (2b)]. Compound 1b reacts with AgClO(4) (1:1) to give [[Pt(CN(t)Bu)(2)](2)Ag(2)[mu(2),eta(2)-(S,S')-[S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)](2)]](ClO(4))(2) (3). The reactions of 1 or 2 with diethylamine give mixed isocyanide carbene complexes [M[eta(2)-S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)](CNR)[C(NEt(2))(NHR)]] [R = (t)Bu, M = Pd (4a), Pt (4b); R = Xy, M = Pd (5a), Pt (5b)] regardless of the molar ratio of the reagents. The same complexes react with an excess of ammonia to give [M[eta(2)-(S,S')-S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)](CN(t)Bu)[C(NH(2))(NH(t)Bu)]] [M = Pd (6a), Pt (6b)] or [M[eta(2)-(S,S')-S(2)C=C[C(O)Me](2)][C(NH(2))(NHXy)](2)] [M = Pd (7a), Pt (7b)] probably depending on steric factors. The crystal structures of 2b, 4a, and 4b have been determined. Compounds 4a and 4b are isostructural. They all display distorted square planar metal environments and chelating planar E,Z-2,2-diacetyl-1,1-ethylenedithiolato ligands that coordinate through the sulfur atoms.

Importance of platinum(II)-assisted platinum(IV) substitution for the oxidation of guanosine derivatives by platinum(IV) complexes

Guanosine derivatives with a nucleophilic group at the 5' position (G-5') are oxidized by the Pt (IV) complex Pt( d, l)(1,2-(NH 2) 2C 6H 10)Cl 4 ([Pt (IV)(dach)Cl 4]). The overall redox reaction is autocatalytic, consisting of the Pt (II)-catalyzed Pt (IV) substitution and two-electron transfer between Pt (IV) and the bound G-5'. In this paper, we extend the study to improve understanding of the redox reaction, particularly the substitution step. The [Pt (II)(NH 3) 2(CBDCA-O,O')] (CBDCA = cyclobutane-1,1-dicarboxylate) complex effectively accelerates the reactions of [Pt (IV)(dach)Cl 4] with 5'-dGMP and with cGMP, indicating that the Pt (II) complex does not need to be a Pt (IV) analogue to accelerate the substitution. Liquid chromatography/mass spectroscopy (LC/MS) analysis showed that the [Pt (IV)(dach)Cl 4]/[Pt (II)(NH 3) 2(CBDCA-O,O')]/cGMP reaction mixture contained two Pt (IV)cGMP adducts, [Pt (IV)(NH 3) 2(cGMP)(Cl)(CBDCA-O,O')] and [Pt (IV)(dach)(cGMP)Cl 3]. The LC/MS studies also indicated that the trans, cis-[Pt (IV)(dach)( (37)Cl) 2( (35)Cl) 2]/[Pt (II)(en)( (35)Cl) 2]/9-EtG mixture contained two Pt (IV)-9-EtG adducts, [Pt (IV)(en)(9-EtG)( (37)Cl)( (35)Cl) 2] and [Pt (IV)(dach)(9-EtG)( (37)Cl)( (35)Cl) 2]. These Pt (IV)G products are predicted by the Basolo-Pearson (BP) Pt (II)-catalyzed Pt (IV)-substitution scheme. The substitution can be envisioned as an oxidative addition reaction of the planar Pt (II) complex where the entering ligand G and the chloro ligand from the axial position of the Pt (IV) complex are added to Pt (II) in the axial positions. From the point of view of reactant Pt (IV), an axial chloro ligand is thought to be substituted by the entering ligand G. The Pt (IV) complexes without halo axial ligands such as trans, cis-[Pt(en)(OH) 2Cl 2], trans, cis-[Pt(en)(OCOCF 3) 2Cl 2], and cis, trans, cis-[Pt(NH 3)(C 6H 11NH 2)(OCOCH 3) 2Cl 2] ([Pt (IV)(a,cha)(OCOCH 3) 2Cl 2], satraplatin) did not react with 5'-dGMP. The bromo complex, [Pt (IV)(en)Br 4], showed a significantly faster substitution rate than the chloro complexes, [Pt (IV)(en)Cl 4] and [Pt (IV)(dach)Cl 4]. The results indicate that the axial halo ligands are essential for substitution and the Pt (IV) complexes with larger axial halo ligands have faster rates. When the Pt (IV) complexes with different carrier ligands were compared, the substitution rates increased in the order [Pt (IV)(dach)Cl 4] < [Pt (IV)(en)Cl 4] < [Pt (IV)(NH 3) 2Cl 4], which is in reverse order to the carrier ligand size. These axial and carrier ligand effects on the substitution rates are consistent with the BP mechanism. Larger axial halo ligands can form a better bridging ligand, which facilitates the electron-transfer process from the Pt (II) to Pt (IV) center. Smaller carrier ligands exert less steric hindrance for the bridge formation.     

Trace-element levels in tissues of rats and dogs treated with cis-diammine/1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylato/platinum/II/ /Carboplatin/

Platinum and eleven other trace elements were determined by radiochemical neutron activation analysis in tissues of healthy rats and dogs treated with the anti-cancer drug carboplatin. In rats the levels of the trace elements were not much influenced; in the kidney only the Co and the Sb levels were decreased and in the liver only the Mo level was increased. A parallel tendency in the Co and Mo metabolism was seen in dogs. Carboplatin treatment tends to reduce the Cd, Co and Fe levels in metabolic active organs, kidney, liver, spleen and/or pancreas of the dog.     

Synthesis,cytotoxicity, and interaction with DNA of platinum(II) complexes of (1R,2R)-N1-2-amyl-1,2-diaminocyclohexane

(1R,2R)-N¹-2-amyl-1,2-diaminocyclohexane, which has an amyl substituent as compared with 1,2-diaminocyclohexane, was used as the carrier group to construct three platinum(II) complexes. MTT assay revealed that the complexes showed decent cytotoxicity against all of the four tested tumor cell lines with the IC₅₀ values ranging from 1.08 to 253.36 μM. Particularly, the IC₅₀ values of 2 against A549 and HCT-116 reached 3.32 and 1.08 μM, respectively, which were much lower than those of cisplatin and oxaliplatin. Flow cytometry demonstrated that 2 inhibited HepG2 cells proliferation and caused cytotoxicity by inducing apoptosis and arresting cells in the G2 phase. Furthermore, agarose gel electrophoresis showed that 2 had the ability to interact with DNA in a manner different from cisplatin and oxaliplatin, indicating the carrier ligand with an alkyl moiety had an influence on the action mode of the complex.     

Square planar complexes of nickel(II), palladium(II) and platinum(II) with 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3,5-diphenylformazan

Summary A novel series of formazan complexes of general formula FoML [H₂Fo = 1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3,5-diphenylformazan; M = Ni^II, Pd^II or Pt^II; L = NH₃, py and Ph₃P] are described. The formazan nickel(II) system shows linkage isomerism; one isomer, A, contains an unusual five-membered formazan chelate ring, whereas the other, isomer B, has the usual six-membered ring.¹³C n.m.r., u.v. and i.r. spectra are presented and interpreted. From these the palladium and platinum complexes appear to contain the six-membered ring of the B type isomer.     

Conformation of 2-aminomethylpyrrolidine and 2-aminomethylpiperidine in ternary platinum(II) complexes: regulation of conformation of the diamine by the coexisting ligand

Square-planar complexes with the formula [Pt(L(2))(L(1))](X)(2) x nH(2)O, where L(1) is S-2-aminomethylpyrrolidine (S-pyrda) or 2-aminomethylpiperidine (pipda) and L(2) is diammine (X=Cl), cyclobutane-1,1-dicarboxylato (cbdca) (X=none), 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) (X=NO(3)), or 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) (X=Cl), were prepared and the nature of the coordination of L(1) was examined by (1)H-NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. These 2-aminomethylazacycloalkane derivatives form five-membered chelate rings condensed with an azacycloalkane ring in cis- or trans-configurations. The (1)H-NMR spectrum of complexes with S-pyrda as L(1) were consistent with cis-condensed rings in an S(N) conformation with any of L(2) group. However, (1)H-NMR spectra of the complexes with pipda as L(1) indicated trans-fused successive rings for the diammine and cbdca as L(2), but spectra for bpy and phen as L(2) were consistent with a conformation having cis-fused successive rings. X-Ray crystallography data for the two complexes with pipda as L(1) and cbdca (1) and bpy (2) as L(2) confirms the different coordination behavior in the solid state.     

Mechanism of the Reaction of 1,1-Dimethylhydrazine with Copper(II) and Palladium(II) Chloride Complexes Containing Poly-(N-2-Alcoxycarbonylethyl)-Ethyleneimine

The mechanism of the sorption of 1,1-dimethylhydrazine vapors with metal chloride complexes of poly-(N-2-R-oxycarbonylethyl)-ethyleneimines (R = –n-C₄H₉, –n-C₁₀H₂₁) was studied by Fourier transform IR spectroscopy (FTIR) and piezoelectric resonance. The structure of the products was determined. This allowed for the optimization of the chemical composition and structure of poly-(N-2-R-oxycarbonylethyl)-ethyleneimine-based complexes in their use as sensitive coatings of piezoelectric sensors for determining 1,1-dimethylhydrazine vapors in air.
