Popis: A new series of complexes of the type [PtAm2LCl]+ (where Am = NH3 or Am2 = ethylenediamine and L is a monodentate AQ-Y-(CH2)n-NH2, AQ = anthraquinone, Y = NH, O) was prepared and screened in vitro against P388 leukemia. These complexes displayed higher activities than the corresponding neutral PtAm2L2 1:2 Pt:anthraquinone complexes but lower than the neutral diaminedichloro 1:1 complexes. The [Pt(en)LCl]+ complexes were significantly less active than the cis- and trans-[Pt(NH3)2LCl]+ complexes. The cis and trans isomers displayed similar activities. The complexes bearing the shorter linker chains were more active than those with longer chains. In vivo toxicity studies indicate that they are significantly less toxic than cis-DDP.
