    Abstract:
    The dinuclear hydroxo complex cis-[L(2)Pt(mu-OH)](2)(NO(3))(2) (L = PMePh(2), 1), in CH(2)Cl(2), CH(3)CN, or DMF solution, deprotonates the NH(2) group of 9-methyladenine (9-MeAd) to give the complex cis-[L(2)Pt[9-MeAd(-H)]](3)(NO(3))(3), 2, which was isolated in good yield. The X-ray structure shows that the nucleobase binds symmetrically the metal centers through the N(1),N(6) atoms forming a cyclic trimer with Pt...Pt distances in the range 5.202(1)-5.382(1) A. Dissolution of 2 in DMSO or DMF determines the partial (or total) dissociation of the cyclic structure to form several fragments. A multinuclear NMR analysis of the resulting mixture supports the presence of the mononuclear species cis-[L(2)Pt[9-MeAd(-H)]](+), 3, in which the deprotonated nucleobase chelates the metal center with the N(6),N(7) atoms. Addition of a stoichiometric amount of the nitrato complex cis-[L(2)Pt(ONO(2))(2)] (L = PMePh(2), 4) to a DMSO or DMF solution of 2 affords quantitatively the diplatinated compound cis-[L(2)Pt(ONO(2))[9-MeAd(-H)]PtL(2)](NO(3))(2), 5. The single-crystal X-ray analysis shows that the adenine behaves as a tridentate ligand bridging two cis-L(2)Pt units at the N(1) and N(6),N(7) sites, respectively [Pt(1)-N(1) = 2.109(5) A, Pt(2)-N(6) = 2.095(7) A, Pt(2)-N(7) = 2.126(7) A]. The N(1)-bonded metal center completes the coordination sphere through an oxygen atom of a nitrate group, and its coordination plane is arranged orthogonally with respect the second one. The Pt-O distance [2.109(5) A] is similar to those found in the nitrato complex 4 [2.110 A, average]. The related complex cis-[[L(2)Pt(ONO(2))](2)(9-MeAd)](NO(3))(2), 6, containing the neutral adenine platinated at the N(1),N(7) atoms, was isolated and its stability in solution investigated by NMR spectroscopy. In DMSO, 6 undergoes decomposition forming a mixture of the species 4, 5, and the adenine mono- and bis-adducts cis-[L(2)Pt(9-MeAd)(DMSO)](2+), 7, and cis-[L(2)Pt(9-MeAd)(2)](2+), 8, respectively. This last complex, quantitatively formed upon addition of 9-MeAd (Pt/adenine = 1:2) to the mixture, was also isolated and characterized.
