Circumventing cisplatin resistance : The trans ‐[PtCl 2 (NH 3 )(pip‐pip)] + ion (see structure; red Pt, blue N, green Cl, gray C) is a cytotoxic compound with a cationic piperidinopiperidine ligand. The piperidine ring that is removed from the Pt II center is fluxional and acts as a hydrogen‐bond donor. The complex binds calf thymus DNA directly and rapidly ( t 1/2 =11 min) without prior hydrolysis and circumvents cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer cells.
