Abstract

The products obtained by forcing the reaction with nucleosides (guanosine, Guo, and adenosine, Ado) of potential anticancer drugs for nongenomic targets [PtCl(O,O'-acac)(L)] (L = dimethyl sulfoxide, DMSO; dimethyl sulfide, DMS), closely related to their very powerful organometallic analogues [Pt(O,O'-acac)(γ-acac)(L)], have been studied. [PtCl(O,O'-acac)(L)] and [Pt(O,O'-acac)(γ-acac)(L)] complexes were reported unreactive toward nucleobases. Aquo species [Pt(O,O'-acac)H2O(L)]+, obtained from [PtCl(O,O'-acac)(L)] by Ag+ driven coordinated Cl– removal, gave access to [Pt(O,O'- acac)(L)(nucleoside)]+ ([Pt(O,O'-acac)(DMSO)(Guo)]+, [Pt(O,O'-acac)(DMS)(Guo)]+, [Pt(O,O'-acac)(DMSO)(Ado)]+). The effect of the chelate oxygen donor acac (with respect to a chelate diammine), the role of the sulfur ligand (DMSO, DMS), and the influence of the purinic nucleoside itself on the coordinated Guo or Ado dynamic motions in [Pt(O,O'- acac)(L)(nucleoside)]+ complexes have been investigated by NMR spectroscopy. Interestingly, a slow rotation of nucleobase around the Pt–N(7) bond with formation of two rotamers was observed already at room temperature only in the case of [Pt(O,O'- acac)(DMSO)(Guo)]+. On the other hand, no hindered rotation at room temperature was detected in the analogous [Pt(O,O'-acac)(DMS)(Guo)]+ and [Pt(O,O'-acac)(DMSO)(Ado)]+ complexes. Data suggest that rotation of the nucleoside in [Pt(O,O'-acac)(L)(nucleoside)]+ is very different with respect to the analogous [Pt(diammine)(L)(nucleoside)]2+ systems, due to specific interactions between the acac chelate ligand, the DMSO, and the nucleobase
