Synthesis and anticancer activity of [2-hydroxy-1,3-diaminopropane-K-2 N,N '] platinum(II) complexes

摘要

A series of novel platinum(II) complexes involving a carrier with HO- peripheral functional group, 2-hydroxy-1,3-propanediamine (HO-pda), cis-[Pt(HO-dpa)X-2] (X-2 = 2Cl(-) (1), C2O42- (2), malonate (3), 1,1-cyclobutane dicarboxylate (CBDCA) (4), 3-hydroxy-1,1-cyclobutanedicarboxylate (HO-CBDCA) (5)), have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic data along with X-ray diffraction for three representative complexes 1, 4 and 5. The Pt(II) is in a square planar environment and is coordinated in cis position by a chelating HO-pda and 2Cl(-) for 1 and CBDCA for 4 and 5. Pt-N, Pt-Cl and Pt-O distances and coordinate bond angles of N-Pt-N, Cl-Pt-Cl and O-Pt-O are in the normal range. There are two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit of 5, held together by intermolecular hydrogen bonded chain. All the complexes show significant cytotoxicity on the sensitive cell lines SGC-7901, LNcap and A549, and are more active than carboplatin. 4 is also found to be active against the resistant cell A549/ATCC, which suggests that it has less cross-resistance with cisplatin than carboplatin. Moreover 4 shows much greater inhibition of tumor growth than carboplatin in S180-bearing mice, and is therefore worthy of further development as a potential anti-tumor platinum drug.
