S. Albaker et al., SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF A SERIES OF HYDROPHOBIC ANTITUMOR BIS(CARBOXYLATO) (1,2-DIAMINOCYCLOHEXANE) PLATINUM(II) COMPLEXES, Journal of coordination chemistry, 29(1-2), 1993, pp. 1-6
A series of hydrophobic platinum(II) complexes of the type (DACH)PtX2
(where DACH = various isomeric forms of 1,2-diaminocyclohexane and X=p
entanoato, hexanoato, heptanoato, octanoato, nonanoato, decanoato, uni
decanoato, laurato, tridecanoato, myristato, pentadecanoato, palmitato
, heptadecanoato, or stearato) has been synthesized and characterized
using elemental analysis, infrared spectra and nuclear magnetic resona
nce (C-13{H-1} and Pt-195{H-1}). The complexes have been prepared as p
otential antitumor agents for liposome entrapment.
