Syntheses, antitumor activity, and molecular mechanics studies of cis-PtCl2(pzH)2 (pzH=pyrazole) and related complexes. Crystal structure of a novel Magnus-type double-salt [Pt(pzH)4][PtCl4][cis-PtCl2(pzH)2]2 involving two perpendicularly aligned 1D chains
摘要:
A new Magnus-type double-salt cocrystallized with a neutral complex, [Pt(pzH)(4)][PtCl4][cis-PtCl2(pzH)(2)](2) (1), has been isolated from a reaction between K2PtCl4 and pyrazole as a result of our reinvestigation of cis-PtCl2(pzH)(2) (2). interestingly, compound 1 involves two types of 1D chains respectively growing along the a- and c-axes, giving a novel intersecting framework. The former is {cis-PtCl2(pzH)(2)}(n) (Pt-Pt = 4.342(2) and 4.373(2) Angstrom), and the latter is a Magnus-type 1D chain {[Pt(pzH)(4)][PtCl4]}(n) (Pt-Pt = 3.9388(1) Angstrom). Each stacking interaction is stabilized with two hydrogen bonds formed between the chloride atoms and the N-H units of pyrazoles; Cl...N(pyrazole) = 3.21(2)-3.49(2) Angstrom. The in vitro antitumor activity of 2 toward some human cancer cell lines is found to be comparable to that of cis-PtCl2(NH3)(2). Molecular mechanics investigations of some GG-adducts of cis-Pt(pzH)(2) reveal the importance of hydrogen-bond formation between the NH(pzH) units and the guanine/phosphate groups for the electrostatic stabilization of the adducts.
