Three novel platinum(IV) complexes cis,cis,trans-[Pt(HL1-3)Cl2(OH)2] 1b-3b (HL = 2-hydroxy-3-[(R1-amino)(pyridin-2-yl)methyl]-1,4-naphthoquinone, R1 = n-butyl, HL1; n-heptyl, HL2 and n-decyl, HL3) have been obtained from the oxidation of the respective precursors cis-[Pt(HL1-3)Cl2] 1a-3a. Cyclic voltammetry studies of 1b-3b in MeCN showed the quasi-reversible naphthoquinonate (NQO-, i.e. , L-) redox process and irreversible process attributed to the reduction of the Pt4+/Pt2+ pair, at potentials about 400 mV less negative than for the cisplatin precursor cis,cis,trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2(OH)2]. Hydrogen bond interaction between the naphthoquinone 2-hydroxyl group and an axially coordinated hydroxide ligand in 1b-3b has been proposed to favor the Pt4+/Pt2+ reduction. The cytotoxicity studies against four human cancer cell lines have shown that in general the platinum(IV) and platinum(II)derivatives exhibit the same cytotoxic profile and are all more active than cisplatin. The lowest in vitro IC50 values have been observed for 2b-3b, which bear ligands with the largest R1 groups (HL2-HL3) being the most lipophilic. Furthermore similar IC50 values for platinum(II) and platinum(IV) complexes of the same ligands have been associated with rapid in vitro reduction of the latter complexes to afford 1a-3a.
