Platinum(IV) am(m)ine complexes are of interest as potential anticancer pro-drugs, but there are few reports of their acid-base properties. We have studied the acid-base properties of three photoactivatable anticancer platinum(IV)-diazidodiam(m)ine complexes (cis,trans,cis-[Pt(IV)(N(3))(2)(OH)(2)(NH(3))(2)], trans,trans,trans-[Pt(IV)(N(3))(2)(OH)(2)(NH(3))(2)], and cis,trans-[Pt(IV)(N(3))(2)(OH)(2)(en)]) using multinuclear NMR methods and potentiometry. In particular, the combination of both dir ...[more]
