Synthesis of Platinum Complexes from N-Benzyl-1,3-Propanediamine Derivatives, Potential Antineoplastic Agents

This work describes the synthesis of seven new platinum complexes having Nbenzyl 1,3-propanediamine derivatives as ligands. They were prepared by the reaction of K2[PtCl4] with the appropriate ligand in water. These complexes are analogs of cisplatin, and are potential antineoplastic agents.
