description

Abstract Novel mononuclear complexes of Pt(II), cis -[PtCl 2 (DMSO)HL]·2DMSO ( 1 ), where HL = 7-amino-2-(methylthio)[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5- a ]pyrimidine-6-carboxylic acid and Pt(bdt)Cl 2 ( 2 ), where bdt = [2,4-bis(5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazin-3yl)-pyridine] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and 1 H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography diffraction analyses. The molecular structure of ( 1 ) shows that Pt(II) ion has a square planar geometry with N(3) bonded heterocycle ligand, two cis chloride anions and S-bonded dimethylsulfoxide. The antiproliferative activity of complexes ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) has been tested in vitro against HepG2 human hepatoma cells and non-malignant human-derived hepatic cells (Chang). Complex ( 1 ), cis -[PtCl 2 (DMSO)HL]·2DMSO, was effective inducer of apoptotic death on HepG2 cells and its cytotoxic activity was higher than that exerted by cisplatin. Apoptosis effect was associated with externalization of plasma membrane phosphatidylserine.
