Abstract

Treatment of cis-[Pt(dmso)2Cl2] with 2 mol of KBr or KI leads to the formation of the analogous dibromide or diiodide complexes. Treatment of [M(dmso)2Cl2] [M = Pt (cis-) or Pd (trans-)] with AgNO3 (2 mol) in H2O followed by 1mol of potassium oxalate, maleate, cyclobutane dicarboxylate (CBDC), malonate or 2mol of potassium cyclohexane carboxylate or pivalate leads to the formation of the corresponding PtII and PdII carboxylate complexes. The single crystal X-ray structure determination of [Pt(dmso)2(CBDC)] has been discussed and compared with data on other related complexes. The in vitro cytotoxic activity of some of these complexes against eight tumour cell lines has been examined using the MTT-colorimetric assay.
