Abstract

A series of hydrophobic platinum(II) complexes of the type (DACH)PtX2(where DACH = various isomeric forms of 1, 2-diaminocyclohexane and X = pentanoato, hexanoato, heptanoato, octanoato, nonanoato, decanoato, unidecanoato, laurato, tridecanoato, myristato, pentadecanoato, palmitato, heptadecanoato, or stearato) has been synthesized and characterized using elemental analysis, infrared spectra and nuclear magnetic resonance (13C{1H} and195Pt{1H}). The complexes have been prepared as potential antitumor agents for liposome entrapment.
