Cytotoxic activity of [Pt(pyr)(N-Etlm)Cl4].
The [Pt(pyr)(N-Etlm)Cl4] complex, where pyr = pyrimidine and N-Etlm = N-ethylimidazole, previously prepared and characterized, showed an interesting cytotoxicity in vitro on the human ovarian carcinoma (A2780) and on his subline resistant to cis-platinum (A2780/CDDP), in comparison with cis-platinum and carboplatinum.
