Cj. Campbell et al., THE FIRST REPORTED STRUCTURE OF A PLATINUM(IV) COMPLEX CONTAINING DEPROTONATED AMIDE LIGANDS - A MODEL FOR PLATINUM(IV)-PEPTIDE PROTEIN INTERACTIONS, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (19), 1995, pp. 1939-1940
Reaction of 2-diaminoethane-N,N,N',N'-tetra(N-methylacetamide) L with
K-2[PtCl4] in aqueous solution gave H(2)L[PtCl4] acid the unexpected p
roduct cis-Pt(LH(-2))Cl-2 which is the first reported structure of a p
latinum (IV) complex containing deprotonated amide ligands and a model
for platinum (IV)-peptide/protein interactions.
