title: Kinetic studies on the diaqua form of cis-platin and various nucleobases.
abstract: Kinetic studies on cis-[Pt(NH3)2(OH2)2]2+ and various nucleobases show that this ion reacts more quickly with guanosine than with adenosine, cytidine, and thymidine, and that a monophosphoric acid unit considerably enhances the rate of reaction of guanosine; the kinetic preference of 5'-GMP over 5'-AMP may point to a greater thermodynamic selectivity.
