    Abstract:
    A series of malonate (mal) platinum(II) complexes of the general formula [Pt(mal)(L)2], where L=5,7-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (dmtp) (1), 7-isobutyl-5-methyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (ibmtp) (2) or 5,7-ditertbutyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine (dbtp) (3), has been prepared and characterized using multinuclear ((1)H, (13)C, (15)N, (195)Pt) NMR, IR and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESIMS). Furthermore, the crystal structures of [Pt(mal)(dmtp)2]∙4H2O (1a) and [Pt(mal)(dbtp)2]∙CHCl3 (3a) have been determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The spectroscopic characterization unambiguously confirmed the square-planar geometry of Pt(II) with two monodentate N3-bonded 5,7-disubstituted-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and one O-chelating malonate. The antiproliferative activities of the compounds against the human cell lines T47D (cisplatin-resistant human ductal breast epithelial tumor cell line) and A549 (lung adenocarcinoma epithelial cell line) and the mouse cell line 4T1 (mouse breast tumor model) were assessed using an in vitro screening assay. Compounds (2) and (3) exhibited substantial antigrowth properties against T47D cells, whereas only (3) exhibited an IC50 value that was lower than cisplatin and carboplatin against the 4T1 cell line. Additionally, compounds (2, 3) are capable of arresting the cell cycle of A549 cells at the G0/G1 phase, whereas cisplatin and carboplatin arrested the cells at the G2/M phase, indicating differences in the mechanism of the suppression of tumor cell growth. Finally, in the quest for low toxicity platinum drugs, the in vitro antiproliferative activity against normal mouse fibroblast cells (BALB/3T3) was evaluated. The inhibition of BALB/3T3 cell proliferation by the evaluated Pt(II) complexes increased in the order (1)<(2)<<carboplatin<<(3)<cisplatin.
