Water-soluble Organometallic Analogues of Oxaliplatin with Cytotoxic and Anticlonogenic Activity

Pt prodrugs: We synthesized new cationic complexes [PtCl(η2‐C2H4)(R,R‐chxn)]Cl (1) and [PtCl(η2‐C2H4)(S,S‐chxn)]Cl (2), which are organometallic analogues of the drug oxaliplatin. Complexes 1 and 2 can be considered antitumor prodrugs, as we demonstrate that they can decompose to give the same metab...

Summary:Pt prodrugs: We synthesized new cationic complexes [PtCl(η2‐C2H4)(R,R‐chxn)]Cl (1) and [PtCl(η2‐C2H4)(S,S‐chxn)]Cl (2), which are organometallic analogues of the drug oxaliplatin. Complexes 1 and 2 can be considered antitumor prodrugs, as we demonstrate that they can decompose to give the same metabolites as those of oxaliplatin.
