Abstract
The new platinum(II) complexes of beta-cyclodextrin functionalized at the primary position with ethylenediamine or with propylenediamine wer e synthesized and characterized by mass spectrometry, electronic spect rophotometry, and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy. Platinum(II) complexa tion makes the cavity more asymmetric. These complexes were tested in vitro for their cytotoxic activity. The relevance of the low activity observed regarding the interaction between the cell and the cyclodextr in cavity is discussed.
