Abstract
The synthesis and pharmacological characterisation of (1-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)- methanamine and its derivatives in PtII complexes are described. Six out of eleven new PtII complexes showed a significant cytotoxic effect on NCI-H460 lung cancer cell line with EC50 values between 1.1 and 0.115 mM, determined by MTT assay. Compound Pt-4a showed a particularly more potent cytotoxic effect than the previously described PtII ...
