Abstract
Three potential anticancer agents {trans-[PtCl(2)(NH(3))(thiazole)], cis-[PtCl(2)(NH(3))(piperidine)], and PtCl(2)(NH(3))(cyclohexylamine) (JM118)} were explored and compared with cisplatin and the inactive [PtCl(dien)](+) complex. Basic electronic properties, bonding and stabilization energies were determined, and thermodynamic and kinetic parameters for the aquation reaction were estimated at the B3LYP/6-311++G(2df,2pd) level of theory. Since the aquation process represents activation of these agents, the obtained rate constants were compared with the experimental IC(50) values for several tumor cells. Despite the fact that the processes in which these drugs are involved and the way in which they affect cells are very complex, some correlations can be deduced.

Abstract
cis-[PtA2(nucleotide)2] complexes (A2 stands for two amines or a diamine) have been extensively investigated as model compounds for key cisplatin-DNA adducts. All cis-[metal(nucleotide/nucleoside)2] complexes with guanine and related purines characterized in the solid state thus far have the DeltaHT conformation (head-to-tail orientation of the two bases and right-handed chirality). In sharp contrast, the LambdaHT conformation (left-handed chirality) dominates in acidic and neutral aqueous solutions of cis-[PtA2(5'-GMP)2] complexes. Molecular models and solution experiments indicate that the LambdaHT conformer is stabilized by 5'-phosphate/N1H hydrogen-bond interactions between cis nucleotides with the normal anti conformation. However, this evidence, while compelling, is indirect. At last, conditions have been defined to allow crystallization of this elusive conformer. The structure obtained reveals three unique features not present in all other cis-[PtA2(nucleotide)2] solid-state structures: a LambdaHT conformation, very strong hydrogen-bond interactions between the phosphate and N1H of cis nucleotides, and a very small dihedral angle between the planes of the two guanines lying nearly perpendicular to the coordination plane. These new results indicate that, because there are no local base-base repulsions precluding the LambdaHT conformer, global forces rather than local interactions account for the predominance of the DeltaHT conformer over the LambdaHT conformer in the solid state and in both inter- and intrastrand HT crosslinks of oligonucleotides and DNA.

Abstract
In this study, various platinum cross-links in DNA bases were explored. Some of these structures occur in many cis/trans-platinated double-helixes or single-stranded adducts. However, in the models studied, no steric hindrance from sugar-phosphate backbone or other surroundings is considered. Such restrictions can change the bonding picture partially but hopefully the basic energy characteristics will not be changed substantially. The optimization of the structures explored was performed at the DFT level with the B3LYP functional and the 6-31G(d) basis set. Perturbation theory at the MP2/6-31++G(2df,2pd) level was used for the single-point energy and 6-31+G(d) basis set for the electron-property analyses. It was found that the most stable structures are the diguanine complexes followed by guanine-cytosine Pt-cross-links, ca 5 kcal mol(-1) less stable. The adenine-containing complexes are about 15 kcal mol(-1) below the stability of diguanine structures. This stability order was also confirmed by the BE of Pt-N bonds. For a detailed view on dative and electrostatic contributions to Pt-N bonds, Natural Population Analysis, determination of electrostatic potentials, and canonical Molecular Orbitals description of the examined systems were used.

Abstract
The bulky, asymmetric analog of the antitumor drug cisplatin, [PtCl(2)(tmen)] (tmen = N,N,N'-trimethylethylenediamine), was used to produce crosslinks with the dinucleotide d(GpG), modeling the most frequent lesions that cisplatin and its analogs cause to DNA. The ligand tmen was chosen because it is expected to constrain the guanine cis to the NMe(2) group in the adduct [Pt(tmen){d(GpG)}](+) to an orientation perpendicular to the coordination plane and to stabilize the other guanine in an oblique orientation, thus maintaining a head-to-head geometry typical of cisplatin-d(GpG) crosslinks within single- and double-stranded DNA. Of the four possible combinations of tmen chirality (R or S symmetry of the coordinated NHMe group) and crosslink direction (5'-G bound cis to the secondary or the tertiary amino group of tmen), two isomers were preponderantly formed, [Pt(R-tmen){d(GpG)}](+) with 5'-G bound cis to NMe(2) and [Pt(S-tmen){d(GpG)}](+) with 5'-G bound cis to NHMe. The former was shown to have a right-handed R2 orientation of guanines similar to that found in duplex DNA, whereas the latter had a left-handed L1 orientation that modeled cisplatin-d(GpG) adducts within single-stranded DNA. The R2 rotamer was found to be in an equilibrium (as observed using EXSY spectroscopy) with a minor fraction (< or =4%) of a Delta-HT rotamer related to R2 by rotation of the 3'-G about the Pt-N7 bond. The major rotamers R2 and L1 were isolated using reverse-phase HPLC, and their NMR and CD signatures were compared to those of the corresponding rotamers of the less hindered adduct [Pt(dmen)(GpG)](+) (dmen = N,N-dimethylethylenediamine). From this and other comparisons with previously reported platinum dinucleotide complexes, and from molecular modeling, it could be concluded that both steric repulsion between guanine and substituents of the cis amino group and N-H...O6 hydrogen bonding are significant effects favoring the oblique orientation of one guanine base typical of the HH rotamers of [Pt(diamine){d(GpG)}](+) and [Pt(diamine)(GpG)](+) complexes.

Abstract
Interactions of hydrated cisplatin complexes with sulphur-containing amino acids cysteine and methionine were explored. The square-planar cis-[Pt(NH3)2(H2O)X]+ complexes (where X=Cl- and OH-) were chosen as mono- and dihydrated reactants. Calculations using density functional theory (DFT) techniques with B3LYP functional were performed. The isolated molecules and the supermolecular approaches were employed for the determination of the reaction energies. Bond dissociation energies (BDE) were estimated in the model of isolated molecules and supermolecules were used for the determination of the association energies between the two interacting parts. Formation of monodentate complexes by replacing the aqua-ligand with the S, N, and O-sites of both amino acids represents an exothermic process. The highest BDE was found in cysteine structures for the Pt-S coordination. The bonding energy is about 114 kcal/mol, which is comparable with cisplatin-guanine adducts. Analogous BDE for methionine complexes is smaller by about 40 kcal/mol. This correlates well with the known fact that cysteine forms irreversible cisplatin adducts while similar adducts in the methionine case are reversible. The formation of chelate structures is an exothermic reaction only for the hydroxo-form of reactants in the supermolecular approach where additional association interactions between the released water and chelate molecules sufficiently stabilize the final product.

Abstract
Extensive investigations of cis-[Pt(diA)G2] complexes (in which G = a guanine ligand; diA = a single diamine ligand) revealed the types of interactions between the two G ligands and between the G and the cis-amine substituents when diA is a diamine ligand with substituents on each nitrogen atom being a small hydrogen atom and a bulky group able to slow the rotation about the Pt-G bond. All these interactions are shown to apply also when diA = dach (1,2-diaminocyclohexane), even though this chiral primary diamine has only small N-H atoms on each side of the coordination plane. However, a slight difference in the stereochemistry of the two protons (one N-H has "quasi axial" and the other "quasi equatorial" character) is sufficient to induce a significant change in the relative stabilities of the [Pt(dach)G2] deltaHT and lambdaHT rotamers (HT = head-to-tail). The new results show that at acidic and neutral pH the induction of asymmetry from the dach ligand to the HT rotamers is governed by the G-to-G dipole-dipole interaction, which is greater for the six-membered ring of each guanine leaning towards the cis-G. Such a "six-in" canting of the two guanine ligands can be hampered by the steric interaction between the H8 of each guanine and the substituent on the cis-amine that is on the same side of the coordination plane. Such a repulsion is greater for a "quasi equatorial" N-H than for a "quasi axial" N-H. Under basic pH conditions, deprotonation of the guanine N1-H renders the O6 atom a much better hydrogen-bond acceptor; therefore, the stability of the HT rotamers is governed by the hydrogen-bond interaction of guanine O6 and the cis-amine N-H group. Such a guanine O6/N-H cis-amine interaction is stronger for a "quasi axial" than for a "quasi equatorial" N-H group. In the head-to-head (HH) rotamer, in which the electrostatic repulsion between electron-rich O6 atoms, both on the same side of the platinum coordination plane, tends to place the six-membered rings of each guanine further from the cis-guanine and closer to the cis-amine, we can expect better N-H...O6 hydrogen bonding for the "quasi equatorial" N-H groups.

Abstract
Molecular mechanics and dynamics calculations have been used in conjunction with experimental data to study the effects of amine ligand bulk on the formation of both guanine and methionine complexes with platinum diamine compounds. The AMBER force field has been supplemented with previous modifications [Yao; et al. Inorg. Chem. 1994, 33, 6061-6077. Cerasino; et al. Inorg. Chem. 1997, 36, 6070-6079] and has been further modified to include parameters for platinum bound to the sulfur atom of methionine. Molecular mechanics calculations with this modified AMBER force field have suggested that a platinum complex with two sulfur-bound methionine ligands and a bulky diamine ligand (N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, Me(4)en) would have severe interligand clashes; such interligand clashes are less pronounced in bis(9-ethylguanine) complexes. Consistent with these observations, NMR studies with [Pt(Me(4)en)(D(2)O)(2)](2+) have indicated that guanine 5'-monophosphate reacts in a 2:1 guanine:platinum ratio while both methionine and N-acetylmethionine react with only a 1:1 stoichiometry. Methionine forms a chelate via the sulfur and nitrogen atoms whereas N-acetylmethionine forms a chelate via the sulfur and oxygen atoms. The oxygen of the latter chelate can be displaced by the addition of guanosine 5'-monophosphate, although complete displacement of the N-acetylmethionine was not observed.

Abstract
The B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory was used for the optimization of [Pt(NH(3))(4)](2+), [Pt(NH(3))(3)(H(2)O)](2+), cis-[Pt(NH(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](2+), and related platinum complexes. In addition, water or ammonium ligands were replaced by DNA purine bases so that finally cis-diammineplatinum with two bases (Pt-bridged complexes) is obtained. Single point calculations using the MP2/6-31+G(d) method were performed on the obtained reference geometries and were utilized for estimating bond dissociation energies (BDEs) and stabilization energies, and for electron density analyses. After reoptimization, IR spectra were determined from HF second derivatives. It was found that replacement of both water and ammonium by the DNA base is an exothermic process (20-50 kcal/mol depending on the ligands present in the complex). Asymmetric structures with one interbase H-bond were obtained for cis-diammine[bond](N(7),N(7)'-diadenine)[bond]platinum and mixed cis-diammine[bond](N(7)-adenine)[bond](N(7)-guanine)[bond]platinum complexes. In the case of the diguanine Pt-bridge, a symmetrical complex with two ammonium...O(6) H-bonds was found. The higher stabilization energy of the di-guanine complex is linked to a larger component of the Coulombic interaction. However, the BDE of Pt[bond]N(7)(G) is smaller in this complex than the BDE of Pt[bond]N(7)(G) from the mixed Pt[bond]AG complex. Also, steric repulsion of the ligands is about 10 kcal/mol smaller for the asymmetrical Pt[bond]AA and Pt[bond]AG bridges. The influence of the trans effect on DBE can be clearly seen. Adenine exhibits the largest trans effect, followed by guanine, ammonium, and water. The strength of the H-bond can be determined from the IR spectra. The strongest H-bond is the interbase H-bridge between adenine and guanine in the mixed Pt[bond]AG complex; otherwise, the H-bonds of adenine complexes are weaker than in guanine complexes. BDE can be traced in the guanine-containing complexes. The nature of the covalent bonding is analyzed in terms of partial charges and MO. A general explanation of the lower affinity of transition metals to oxygen than nitrogen can be partially seen in the less favorable geometrical orientation of lone electron pairs of oxygen.

Abstract
We have prepared four complexes of the type [Re(guanine)(2)(X)(CO)(3)] (guanine = 9-methylguanine or 7-methylguanine, X = H(2)O or Br) in order to understand the factors determining the orientation of coordinated purine ligands around the [Re(CO)(3)](+) core. The 9-methylguanine ligand (9-MeG) was chosen as the simplest N(9) derivatized guanine, and 7-methylguanine (7-MeG) was chosen because metal binding to N(9) does not impose steric hindrance. Two types of structures have been elucidated by X-ray crystallography, an HH (head-to-head) and HT (head-to-tail) conformer for each of the guanines. All complexes crystallize in monoclinic space groups: [Re(9-MeG)(2)(H(2)O)(CO)(3)]ClO(4) (2) in P2(1)/n with a = 12.3307(10) A, b = 16.2620(14) A, c = 13.7171(11) A, and beta = 105.525(9) degrees, V = 2650.2(4) A(3), with the two bases in HT orientation and its conformer [Re(9-MeG)(2)(H(2)O)(CO)(3)]Br (3) in P2(1)/n with a = 15.626(13) A, b = 9.5269(5) A, c = 15.4078(13) A, and beta = 76.951(1) degrees, V = 2234.5(3) A(3), and the two bases in an HH orientation. Similarly, [Re(7-MeG)(2)(H(2)O)(CO)(3)]ClO(4) (4) crystallizes in P2(1)/c with a = 13.0708(9) A, b = 15.4082(7) A, c = 14.316(9) A, and beta = 117.236(7) degrees, V = 2563.5(3) A(3), and exhibits an HT orientation and [ReBr(7-MeG)(2)(CO)(3)] (5) in P2/c with a = 17.5117(9) A, b = 9.8842(7) A, c = 15.3539(1) A, and beta = 100.824(7) degrees, V = 2610.3(3) A(3), and shows an HH orientation. When crystals of any of these complex pairs are dissolved in D(2)O, the (1)H NMR spectrum shows a single peak for the H(8) resonance of the respective coordinated purine indicating a rapid equilibrium between HH and HT conformations in solution. DFT calculations simulating the rotation of one ligand around its Re-N bond showed energetic barriers of less than 8.7 kcal/mol. We find no hypochromic effect in the Raman spectrum of 3, which showed base stacking in the solid state. Neither steric interactions nor hydrogen bonding are important in determining the orientation of the ligands in the coordination sphere.

Abstract
Organometallic chemistry offers novel concepts in structural diversity and molecular recognition that can be used in drug design. Here, we consider DNA recognition by eta 6-arene Ru(II) anticancer complexes by an induced-fit mechanism. The stereochemistry of the dinuclear complex [((eta 6-biphenyl)RuCl(en))2-(CH2)6]2 + (3, en = ethylenediamine) was elucidated by studies of the half unit [(eta 6-biphenyl)RuCl(Et-en)]+ (2, where Et-en is Et(H)NCH2CH2NH2). The structures of the separated RRu*RN* and SRu*RN* diastereomers of 2 were determined by x-ray crystallography; their slow interconversion in water (t(1/2) approximately 2 h, 298 K, pH 6.2) was observed by NMR spectroscopy. For 2 and 3 the RRu*RN* configurations are more stable than SRu*RN* (73:27). X-ray and NMR studies showed that reactions of 2 and 3 with 9-ethylguanine gave rise selectively to SRu*RN* diastereomers. Dynamic chiral recognition of guanine can lead to high diastereoselectivity of DNA binding. The dinuclear complex 3 induced a large unwinding (31 degrees) of plasmid DNA, twice that of mononuclear 2 (14 degrees), and effectively inhibited DNA-directed RNA synthesis in vitro. This dinuclear complex gave rise to interstrand cross-links on a 213-bp plasmid fragment with efficiency similar to bifunctional cisplatin, and to 1,3-GG interstrand and 1,2-GG and 1,3-GTG intrastrand cross-links on site-specifically ruthenated 20-mers. Complex 3 blocked intercalation of ethidium considerably more than mononuclear 2. The concept of induced-fit recognition of DNA by organometallic complexes containing dynamic stereogenic centers via dynamic epimerization, intercalation, and cross-linking may be useful in the design of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
The acidity constants of guanylyl(3'-->5')guanosine (GpG(-)) and 2'-deoxyguanylyl(3'-->5')-2'-deoxyguanosine [d(GpG)(-)] for the deprotonation of their (N1)H sites were measured by potentiometric pH titrations in aqueous solution (25 degrees C; I = 0.1 M, NaNO(3)). The same method was used for the determination of the stability constants of the 1:1 complexes formed between Mg(2+), Ni(2+), or Cd(2+) (= M(2+)) and (GG-H)(2-), and in the case of Mg(2+) also of (GG-2H)(3-), where GG(-) = GpG(-) or d(GpG)(-). The stability constants of the M(GG)(+) complexes were estimated. The acidity constants of the H(dGuo)(+) and dGuo species (dGuo = 2'-deoxyguanosine) and the stability constants of the corresponding M(dGuo)(2+) and M(dGuo-H)(+) complexes were also measured. Comparison of these and related data allows the conclusion that N7 of the 5'G unit in GG(-) is somewhat more basic than the one in the 3'G moiety; the same holds for the (N1)(-) sites. On the basis of comparisons with the stability constants measured for the dGuo complexes, it is concluded that M(2+) binding of the GG dinucleoside monophosphates occurs predominantly in a mono-site fashion, meaning that macrochelate formation is not very pronounced. Indeed, it was a surprise to find that the stabilities of the complexes of dGuo or (dGuo-H)(-) and the corresponding ones derived from GG(-) are so similar. Consequently, it is suggested that in the M(GG)(+) and M(GG-H) complexes the metal ion is mainly located at N7 of the 5'G unit since this is the more basic site allowing also an outer-sphere interaction with the C6 carbonyl oxygen and because this coordination mode is also favorable for an electrostatic interaction with the negatively charged phosphodiester bridge. It is further suggested that Mg(2+) binding (which is rather weak compared to that of Ni(2+) and Cd(2+)) occurs mainly in an outer-sphere mode, and on the basis of the so-called Stability Ruler it is concluded that the binding properties of Zn(2+) to the GG species are similar to those of Ni(2+) and Cd(2+).

Abstract
To study the interaction of the fac-[M(CO)(3)](+) moiety (M = (99m)Tc, (188)Re) with DNA bases, we reacted [M(OH(2))(3)(CO)(3)](+) with 9-methylguanine (9-MeG), guanosine (G), and 2-deoxyguanosine (2dG). Two bases bind to the metal center via the N7 atoms. X-ray structure analysis of [(99)Tc(CH(3)OH)(9-MeG)(2)(CO)(3)](+) (4) (monoclinic, I2/a, a = 28.7533(14) A, b = 8.0631(4) A, c = 32.3600(15) A, beta = 91.543(6) degrees, V = 7499.6(6) A(3), Z = 8) and [Re(OH(2))(9-MeG)(2)(CO)(3)](+) (7) (monoclinic, P2(1)/n, a = 12.2873(11) A, b = 16.0707(13) A, c = 14.1809(16) A, beta = 103.361(12) degrees, V = 2724.4(5) A(3), Z = 4) reveals that the two bases are in a head-to-tail (HT) orientation. Kinetic studies show that the rates of substitution of the purine bases are comparable to that of one of the active forms of cisplatin. The bis-substituted complexes are generally less stable than the platinum adducts, and metalation of the bases is reversible.
