NOVEL PLATINUM (IV) COMPLEXES, PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME, AND CARCINOSTATIC AGENTS CONTAINING THE SAME

摘要

A platinum(IV) complex represented by the general formula (I): CHEM wherein R1 and R2 independently represent ammonia, an alkylamine or a cycloalkylamine, or R1 and R2 may together form a cycloalkyldiamine; X1 and X2 independently represent a halogen, nitrate ion, sulfate ion or a monocarboxylic acid, or X1 and X2 may together form a glycolate or a dicarboxylic acid; Y1 represents formic acid, a C1-C8 alkyl-, alkenyl-, aryl-, aralkyl-, alkylamino- or alkoxyl-monocarboxylic acid or sulfonic acid; and Y2 represents a halogen. The complex of the invention is stable even when orally administered and has high antitumor activity.
