trans-Dichlorodiammineplatinum(II)is thetrans isomerof thecoordination complexwith the formulatrans-PtCl2(NH3)2,sometimes calledtransplatin.[1]It is a yellow solid with low solubility in water but good solubility inDMF.The existence of two isomers of PtCl2(NH3)2ledAlfred Wernerto proposesquare planar molecular geometry.[2]It belongs to themolecular symmetrypoint group D2h.
Preparation and reactions
[edit]The complex is prepared by treating [Pt(NH3)4]Cl2withhydrochloric acid.[2]
Many of the reactions of this complex can be explained by thetrans effect.It slowly hydrolyzes in aqueous solution to give the mixedaquo complextrans-[PtCl(H2O)(NH3)2]Cl. Similarly it reacts withthiourea(tu) to give colorlesstrans-[Pt(tu)2(NH3)2]Cl2.In contrast, the cis isomer gives [Pt(tu)4]Cl2.Oxidative additionof chlorine givestrans-PtCl4(NH3)2.
Medicinal chemistry
[edit]trans-Dichlorodiammineplatinum(II) has had far less impact on medicinal chemistry compared to its cis isomer,cisplatin,which is a major anticancer drug. Nonetheless, replacement of the ammonia with other ligands has led to highly active drugs that have attracted much attention.[3]
