SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF A SERIES OF LIPID-SOLUBLE ANTITUMOR BIS(CARBOXYLATO) (R, R-1, 2-DIAMINOCYCLOHEXANE) PLATINUM(II) COMPLEXES

Abstract
A series of lipid-soluble platinum(II) complexes of the type [Pt(OCOR)2 (R, R-DACH)] (OCOR = neopentanoate, n-decanoate, or neodecanoate; R, R-DACH= 1R2R-diaminocyclohexane) has been prepared. These complexes have been characterized by various spectroscopic techniques [IR and NMR (carbon-13 and platinum-195)] and by the measurement of conductivity and specific rotation.
