Synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation of dipicolylamine sulfonamide derivatized platinum complexes as potential anticancer agents.

ABSTRACT: Three new Pt complexes, [PtCl₂(N(SO₂(2-nap))dpa)], [PtCl₂(N(SO₂(1-nap))dpa)] and [PtCl₂(N(SO₂pip)dpa)], containing a rare 8-membered ring were synthesized in good yield and high purity by utilizing the ligands N(SO₂(2-nap))dpa, N(SO₂(1-nap))dpa and N(SO₂pip)dpa, which contain a dipicolylamine moiety. Structural studies of all three complexes confirmed that the ligands are bound in a bidentate mode via Pt-N_(pyridyl) bonds forming a rare 8-membered ring. The intense fluorescence displayed by the ligands is quenched upon coordination to Pt. According to time dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations, the key excitations of N(SO₂(2-nap))dpa and [PtCl
