Abstract
Two ruthenium(II) complexes, Λ-[Ru(phen)2(p-HPIP)]2+ and Δ-[Ru(phen)2(p-HPIP)]2+, were synthesized and characterized via proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry, and circular dichroism spectroscopy. This study aims to clarify the anticancer effect of metal complexes as novel and potent telomerase inhibitors and cellular nucleus target drug. First, the chiral selectivity of the compounds and their ability to stabilize quadruplex DNA were studied via absorption and emission analyses, circular dichroism spectroscopy, fluorescence-resonance energy transfer melting assay, electrophoretic mobility shift assay, and polymerase chain reaction stop assay. The two chiral compounds selectively induced and stabilized the G-quadruplex of telomeric DNA with or without metal cations. These results provide new insights into the development of chiral anticancer agents for G-quadruplex DNA targeting. Telomerase repeat amplification protocol reveals the higher inhibitory activity of Λ-[Ru(phen)2(p-HPIP)]2+ against telomerase, suggesting that Λ-[Ru(phen)2(p-HPIP)]2+ may be a potential telomerase inhibitor for cancer chemotherapy. MTT assay results show that these chiral complexes have significant antitumor activities in HepG2 cells. More interestingly, cellular uptake and laser-scanning confocal microscopic studies reveal the efficient uptake of Λ-[Ru(phen)2(p-HPIP)]2+ by HepG2 cells. This complex then enters the cytoplasm and tends to accumulate in the nucleus. This nuclear penetration of the ruthenium complexes and their subsequent accumulation are associated with the chirality of the isomers as well as with the subtle environment of the ruthenium complexes. Therefore, the nucleus can be the cellular target of chiral ruthenium complexes for anticancer therapy.

Abstract
NMR spectroscopy has been used to observe the effects of the amine ligand on the rate of reaction of platinum diamine and triamine complexes with DNA and protein residues. Whereas [Pt(dien)Cl]Cl and [Pt(dien)(D(2)O)](2+) have been known to react faster with thioether residues such as N-AcMet than with 5'-GMP, we found that [Pt(Me(4)en)(D(2)O)(2)](2+) appeared to react faster with 5'-GMP. To quantitatively assess the factors influencing the rates of reaction, rate constants at pH 4 were determined for the reactions of [Pt(en)(D(2)O)(2)](2+) [en = ethylenediamine] and [Pt(Me(4)en)(D(2)O)(2)](2+) with N-AcMet, N-AcHis, 5'-GMP, and Guo (guanosine). In each case the less bulky complex ([Pt(en)(D(2)O)(2)](2+)) reacts more quickly than does the bulkier [Pt(Me(4)en)(D(2)O)(2)](2+), as expected. Both complexes reacted faster with 5'-GMP; however, analysis of the rate constants suggests that the [Pt(en)(D(2)O)(2)](2+) complex favors reaction with 5'-GMP due to hydrogen bonding with the 5'-phosphate, whereas [Pt(Me(4)en)(D(2)O)(2)](2+) disfavors reaction with N-AcMet due to steric clashes. Bulk had relatively little effect on the rate constant with N-AcHis, suggesting that peptides or proteins that coordinate via His residues would not have their reactivity affected by bulky diamine ligands.

Abstract
The present work stems from our interest in the synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation of lanthanide(III) complexes of a class of coumarin based imines which have been prepared by the interaction of hydrated lanthanide(III) chloride with the sodium salts of 3-acetylcoumarin thiosemicarbazone (ACTSZH) and 3-acetylcoumarin semicarbazone (ACSZH) in 1:3 molar ratio using thermal as well as microwave method. Characterization of the ligands as well as the metal complexes have been carried out by elemental analysis, melting point determinations, molecular weight determinations, magnetic moment, molar conductance, IR, (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, electronic, EPR, X-ray powder diffraction and mass spectral studies. Spectral studies confirm ligands to be monofunctional bidentate and octahedral environment around metal ions. The redox behavior of one of the synthesized metal complex was investigated by cyclic voltammetry. Further, free ligands and their metal complexes have been screened for their antimicrobial as well as DNA cleavage activity. The results of these findings have been presented and discussed.

Abstract
Platinum anticancer drug binding to DNA creates large distortions in the cross-link (G*G*) and the adjacent XG* base pair (bp) steps (G* = N7-platinated G). These distortions, which are responsible for anticancer activity, depend on features of the duplex (e.g., base pairing) and of the cross-link moiety (e.g., the position and canting of the G* bases). The duplex structure stabilizes the head-to-head (HH) over the head-to-tail (HT) orientation and right-handed (R) over left-handed (L) canting of the G* bases. To provide fundamental chemical information relevant to the assessment of such duplex effects, we examine (S,R,R,S)-BipPt(oligo) adducts (Bip = 2,2'-bipiperidine with S,R,R,S chiral centers at the N, C, C, and N chelate ring atoms, respectively; oligo = d(G*pG*) with 3'- and/or 5'-substituents). The moderately bulky (S,R,R,S)-Bip ligand favors L canting and slows rotation about the Pt-G* bonds, and the (S,R,R,S)-BipPt(oligo) models provide more useful data than do dynamic models derived from active Pt drugs. All 5'-substituents in (S,R,R,S)-BipPt(oligo) adducts favor the normal HH conformer (∼97%) by destabilizing the HT conformer through clashes with the 3'-G* residue rather than through favorable H-bonding interactions with the carrier ligand in the HH conformer. For all (S,R,R,S)-BipPt(oligo) adducts, the S pucker of the 5'-X residue is retained. For these adducts, a 5'-substituent had only modest effects on the degree of L canting for the (S,R,R,S)-BipPt(oligo) HH conformer. This small flanking 5'-substituent effect on an L-canted HH conformer contrasts with the significant decrease in the degree of R canting previously observed for flanking 5'-substituents in the R-canted (R,S,S,R)-BipPt(oligo) analogues. The present data support our earlier hypothesis that the distortion distinctive to the XG* bp step (S to N pucker change and movement of the X residue) is required for normal stacking and X·X' WC H bonding and to prevent XG* residue clashes.

Abstract
The highly distorted Pt(d(G*pG*)) (G* = N7-platinated G) 17-membered macrocyclic ring formed by cisplatin anticancer drug binding to DNA alters the structure of the G*G* base pair steps, canting one base, and increases dynamic motion, complicating solution structural studies. However, the ring appears to favor the HH1 conformation (HH1 denotes head-to-head guanine bases, 1 denotes the normal direction of backbone propagation). Compared to cisplatin, analogues with NH groups in the carrier ligand replaced by bulky N-alkyl groups are more toxic and less active and form less dynamic adducts. To examine the molecular origins for the biological effects of steric bulk, we evaluate Me(4)DABPt(d(G*pG*)) models; the bulk and chirality of Me(4)DAB (N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-2,3-diaminobutane with S,S or R,R configurations at the chelate ring carbons) impede dynamic motion and enhance the utility of NMR methods for identifying and characterizing conformers. Unlike past studies of adducts with such bulky carrier ligands, in which no HH conformer was found, the Me(4)DABPt(d(G*pG*)) adducts did form the HH1 conformer, providing compelling evidence that the sugar-phosphate backbone can impose constraints sufficient to overcome the alkyl-group steric effects. The HH1 conformer exhibits no significant canting. The (S,S)-Me(4)DABPt(d(G*pG*)) adduct has the least amount of the "normal" HH1 conformer and the greatest amount of the ΔHT1 conformer (ΔHT1 = head-to-tail G* bases with Δ chirality) ever observed (88% under some conditions). Thus, our results lead us to hypothesize that the low activity and high toxicity of analogues of cisplatin having carrier ligands with N-alkyl groups arise from the low abundance and minimal canting of the HH1 conformer and possibly from the adverse effects of an abundant ΔHT1 conformer. The new findings advance our understanding of the chemistry of the Pt(d(G*pG*)) macrocyclic ring and of the effects of carrier-ligand steric bulk on the properties of the ring.

Abstract
In [PtCl2(cis-1,4-DACH)] (DACH = diaminocyclohexane), the N-Pt-N bite angle (> or =97 degrees , as determined by X-ray diffraction analysis) is much larger than those found in other Pt complexes with bidentate diamines or in cisplatin (approximately 91 degrees ). Hence, the possibility exists that in (cis-1,4-DACH)PtG 2 adducts, rotation of the G's around the Pt-N7 bonds is slowed enough to allow observation of different conformers. In accord with this prevision, decreasing the temperature to 238 K enabled us to observe different conformers of (cis-1,4-DACH)Pt(5'-GMP) 2 (GMP = guanosine monophosphate). This observation is the first case in which such conformers for a platinum derivative with primary diamines and untethered guanines have been resolved and represents the closest model to clinically effective cisplatin obtained to date. We also found that the presence of the 1,4-DACH ligand increased the intensity of the circular dichroism signal stemming from the dominance of an HT conformer (DeltaHT in the adduct with 3'-GMPs and LambdaHT in the adduct with 5'-GMPs).

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
The fac-[Re(CO)3(H2O)3]+ cation, the putative DNA-binding species accounting for the biological activity of related Re(I) complexes, binds reversibly to N7 of 6-oxopurine nucleotide monophosphates (NMPs), in contrast to Pt(II) anticancer drugs. A relatively high amount of NMP is needed to convert all of the fac-[Re(CO)3(H2O)3]+ to adducts. The Re/nucleotide 1:1 adduct forms more rapidly and builds up to a higher concentration for guanosine 5'-monophosphate (5'-GMP) and inosine 5'-monophosphate (5'-IMP) than for the respective 3'-monophosphates (3'-GMP and 3'-IMP). These results are attributable to the 5'-positioning of the 5'-NMP phosphate group that allows it to approach the metal inner sphere for more favorable cation electrostatic and aqua ligand H-bonding interactions, both in the initial productive ion pair encounter complexes and in the N7-bound 1:1 adducts. A higher reactivity of 5'-GMP over 3'-GMP is known for cisplatin. In contrast, more Re/nucleotide 1:2 adduct was formed by 3'-GMP (and 3'-IMP) than by 5'-GMP (and 5'-IMP). Because the 3'-phosphate group cannot closely approach the metal inner coordination sphere, the greater stability for the 3'-GMP 1:2 adduct reflects the more favorable G N1H-phosphate interligand GMP-GMP interactions for 3'-GMP vs 5'-GMP (G=guanine base derivative). This type of interaction is known for platinum adducts. In 1:2 adducts the bound nucleotides are inequivalent, prompting us to perform mixed 5'-GMP/3'-GMP experiments, leading to the observation of major (M) and minor (m) mixed Re/5'-GMP/3'-GMP 1:1:1 adducts. The order of abundance at equilibrium in a typical experiment was M>bis 3'-GMP>m>or=bis 5'-GMP. This stability order was rationalized by invoking the phosphate interactions described above. When methionine and 5'-GMP were allowed to compete for fac-[Re(CO)3(H2O)3]+, the Re/5'-GMP 1:1 adduct was the kinetic product and the S-bound Re/methionine adduct was the thermodynamic product, a result opposite to that typically found for cisplatin.

Abstract
Early studies on cis-PtA2(d(G*pG*)) (A2 = diamine or two amines, G = N7-platinated G) and cis-Pt(NH3)2(d(G*pG*)) models for the key cisplatin-DNA cross-link suggested that they exist exclusively or mainly as the HH1 conformer (HH1 = head-to-head G bases, with 1 denoting the normal direction of backbone propagation). These dynamic models are difficult to characterize. Employing carrier A2 ligands designed to slow dynamic interchange of conformers, we found two new conformers, DeltaHT (head-to-tail G* bases with a Delta chirality) and HH2 (with 2 denoting the backbone propagation direction opposite to normal). However, establishing that the non-HH1 conformations exist as an intrinsic feature of the 17-membered Pt(d(G*pG*)) ring requires exploring a range of different carrier ligands. Here we employ the planar aromatic sp(2) N-donor 5,5'-Me(2)bipy (5,5'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) ligand, having a shape very different from those of previously used nonplanar sp(3) N-donor bidentate carrier ligands, which often bear NH groups. The 5,5'-Me(2)bipy H6 and H6' protons project toward the d(G*pG*) moiety and hinder the dynamic motion of 5,5'-Me(2)bipyPt(d(G*pG*)). We again found HH1, HH2, and DeltaHT conformers with typical properties, supporting the conclusions that the new DeltaHT and HH2 conformers exist universally in dynamic cis-PtA2(d(G*pG*)) adducts, including cis-Pt(NH3)2(d(G*pG*)), and that the carrier ligand typically has little influence on the overall structure of the Pt(d(G*pG*)) macrocyclic ring of a given conformer. The sizes of the G H8 to H6/H6' NOE cross-peaks indicate little base canting in all 5,5'-Me(2)bipyPt(d(G*pG*)) conformers, suggesting that carrier-ligand NH groups favor the canting of one G base in the HH1 and HH2 conformers of typical cis-PtA2(d(G*pG*)) adducts.

Abstract
The N7-Pt-N7 adjacent G,G intrastrand DNA cross-link responsible for cisplatin anticancer activity is dynamic, promotes local "melting" in long DNA, and converts many oligomer duplexes to single strands. For 5'-d(A1T2G3G4G5T6A7C8C9C10A11T12)-3' (G3), treatment of the (G3)2 duplex with five pairs of [LPt(H2O)2]2+ enantiomers (L = an asymmetric diamine) formed mixtures of LPt-G3 products (1 Pt per strand) cross-linked at G3,G4 or at G4,G5 in all cases. L chirality exerted little influence. For primary diamines L with bulk on chelate ring carbons (e.g., 1,2-diaminocyclohexane), the duplex was converted completely into single strands (G3,G4 coils and G4,G5 hairpins), exactly mirroring results for cisplatin, which lacks bulk. In sharp contrast, for secondary diamines L with bulk on chelate ring nitrogens (e.g., 2,2'-bipiperidine, Bip), unexpectedly stable duplexes having two platinated strands (even a unique G3,G4/G4,G5 heteroduplex) were formed. After enzymatic digestion of BipPt-G3 duplexes, the conformation of the relatively nondynamic G,G units was shown to be head-to-head (HH) by HPLC/mass spectrometric characterization. Because the HH conformation dominates at the G,G lesion in duplex DNA and in the BipPt-G3 duplexes, the stabilization of the duplex form only when the L nitrogen adducts possess bulk suggests that H-bonding interactions of the Pt-NH groups with the flanking DNA lead to local melting and to destabilization of oligomer duplexes. The marked dependence of adduct properties on L bulk and the minimal dependence on L chirality underscore the need for future exploration of the roles of the L periphery in affecting anticancer activity.

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
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
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
The N7/O6 equatorial binding interactions of the antitumor active complex Rh(2)(OAc)(4)(H(2)O)(2) (OAc(-) = CH(3)CO(2)(-)) with the DNA fragment d(GpG) have been unambiguously determined by NMR spectroscopy. Previous X-ray crystallographic determinations of the head-to-head (HH) and head-to-tail (HT) adducts of dirhodium tetraacetate with 9-ethylguanine (9-EtGH) revealed unprecedented bridging N7/O6 guanine nucleobases that span the Rh-Rh bond. The absence of N7 protonation at low pH and the notable increase in the acidity of N1-H (pK(a) approximately 5.7 as compared to 8.5 for N7 only bound platinum adducts), suggested by the pH dependence titrations of the purine H8 (1)H NMR resonances for Rh(2)(OAc)(2)(9-EtG)(2) and Rh(2)(OAc)(2-)[d(GpG)],are consistent with bidentate N7/O6 binding of the guanine nucleobases. The pK(a) values estimated for N1-H (de)protonation, from the pH dependence studies of the C6 and C2 (13)C NMR resonances for the Rh(2)(OAc)(2)(9-EtG)(2) isomers, concur with those derived from the H8 (1)H NMR resonance titrations. Comparison of the (13)C NMR resonances of C6 and C2 for the dirhodium adducts Rh(2)(OAc)(2)(9-EtG)(2) and Rh(2)(OAc)(2)[d(GpG)] with the corresponding resonances of the unbound ligands [at pH 7.0 for 9-EtGH and pH 8.0 for d(GpG)], shows substantial downfield shifts of Deltadelta approximately 11.0 and 6.0 ppm for C6 and C2, respectively; the latter shifts reflect the effect of O6 binding to the dirhodium centers and the ensuing enhancement in the acidity of N1-H. Intense H8/H8 ROE cross-peaks in the 2D ROESY NMR spectrum of Rh(2)(OAc)(2)[d(GpG)] indicate head-to-head arrangement of the guanine bases. The Rh(2)(OAc)(2)[d(GpG)] adduct exhibits two major right-handed conformers, HH1 R and HH2 R, with HH1 R being three times more abundant than the unusual HH2 R. Complete characterization of both adducts revealed repuckering of the 5'-G sugar rings to C3'-endo (N-type), retention of C2'-endo (S-type) conformation for the 3'-G sugar rings, and anti orientation with respect to the glycosyl bonds. The structural features obtained for Rh(2)(OAc)(2))[d(GpG)] by means of NMR spectroscopy are very similar to those for cis-[Pt(NH(3))(2))[d(GpG)]] and corroborate molecular modeling studies.

Abstract
Rate constants for guanine rotation about the Pt-N7 bond in (R,S,S,R)-Me(2)DABPtG(2) complexes (Me(2)DAB = N,N'-dimethyl-2,3-diaminobutane; G = 9-EtG, 3'-GMP, and 5'-GMP) were evaluated from line-shape analysis of H8 resonances. Three diastereomers, two in head-to-tail (DeltaHT and LambdaHT) and one in head-to-head (HH) conformations, exist in equilibrium in solution. The two guanines are equivalent in DeltaHT and LambdaHT conformers and nonequivalent in the HH form; therefore, four rate constants (k(Delta)(HT), k(Lambda)(HT), k(HH)()s, and k(HH)()d; sub-subscripts s and d stand for H8-shielded and -deshielded guanine, respectively) were evaluated. Activation parameters (DeltaH and DeltaS) were evaluated from the rate constant dependence on temperature. High values of DeltaH (78-93 kJ mol(-)(1)) and DeltaS (51-71 J K(-)(1) mol(-)(1)) were found for G rotation in the preferred DeltaHT rotamer having the six-membered ring of each guanine more canted toward the cis-G and a favorable dipole-dipole internucleotide interaction. Lower values of DeltaH() (64-76 kJ mol(-)(1)) and very small values of DeltaS() (-7-11 J K(-)(1) mol(-)(1)) were found for G rotation in the less favorable LambdaHT rotamer, indicating that the ground-state entropy of this rotamer is close to that of the activated complex and the ground-state enthalpy closer to that of the activated complex than for the DeltaHT rotamer. For the two guanines in the HH rotamer there is no large difference in activation parameters. In general DeltaH falls in the range 66-84 kJ mol(-)(1) (rather close to the values for the LambdaHT rotamer) and DeltaS in the range 14-41 J K(-)(1) mol(-)(1). The equilibrium constant between HT and HH rotamers was also evaluated together with the corresponding thermodynamic parameters (DeltaH and DeltaS). It is found that the low enthalpy is the major stabilizing factor for DeltaHT as compared to HH, while the entropy factor would favor the latter rotamer. In contrast the greater entropy is the stabilizing factor for the LambdaHT rotamer (the second most abundant conformer for 9-EtG and 3'-GMP) over the HH rotamer. In the latter case the enthalpy would favor the HH rotamer. In the case of the 5'-GMP derivative the greater entropy of the LambdaHT rotamer is not such to compensate for the lower enthalpy of the HH rotamer, and the latter remains the second most abundant rotamer. This investigation has allowed for the first time the enthalpic and entropic contributions favoring different rotamers to be distinguished.

Abstract
Typical cis-PtA(2)G(2) models of key DNA lesions formed by cis-type Pt anticancer drugs are very dynamic and difficult to characterize (A(2) = diamine or two amines; G = guanine derivative). Retro models have A(2) carrier ligands designed to decrease dynamic motion without eliminating any of three possible conformers with bases oriented head-to-tail (two: DeltaHT and LambdaHT) or head-to-head (one: HH). All three were found in NMR studies of eight Me(2)DABPtG(2) retro models (Me(2)DAB = N,N'-dimethyl-2,3-diaminobutane with S,R,R,S and R,S,S,R configurations at the chelate ring N, C, C, and N atoms, respectively; G = 5'-GMP, 3'-GMP, 5'-IMP, and 3'-IMP). The bases cant to the left (L) in (S,R,R,S)-Me(2)DABPtG(2) adducts and to the right (R) in (R,S,S,R)-Me(2)DABPtG(2) adducts. Relative to the case in which the bases are both not canted, canting will move the six-membered rings closer in to each other ("6-in" form) or farther out from each other ("6-out" form). Interligand interactions between ligand components near to Pt (first-first sphere communication = FFC) or far from Pt (second-sphere communication = SSC) influence stability. In typical cases at pH < 8, the "6-in" form is favored, although the larger six-membered rings of the bases are close. In minor "6-out" HT forms, the proximity of the smaller five-membered rings could be sterically favorable. Also, G O6 is closer to the sterically less demanding NH part of the Me(2)DAB ligand, possibly allowing G O6-NH hydrogen bonding. These favorable FFC effects do not fully compensate for possibly stronger FFC dipole effects in the "6-in" form. SSC, phosphate-N1H cis G interactions favor LambdaHT forms in 5'-GMP and 5'-IMP complexes and DeltaHT forms in 3'-GMP and 3'-IMP complexes. When SSC and FFC favor the same HT conformer, it is present at >90% abundance. In six adducts [four (S,R,R,S)-Me(2)DABPtG(2) and (R,S,S,R)-Me(2)DABPtG(2) (G = 3'-GMP and 3'-IMP)], the minor "6-out" HT form at pH approximately 7 becomes the major form at pH approximately 10, where G N1H is deprotonated, because the large distance between the negatively charged N1 atoms minimizes electrostatic repulsion and probably because the G O6-(NH)Me(2)DAB H-bond (FFC) is strengthened by N1H deprotonation. At pH approximately 10, phosphate-negative N1 repulsion is an unfavorable SSC term. This factor disfavors the LambdaHT R form of two (R,S,S,R)-Me(2)DABPtG(2) (G = 5'-GMP and 5'-IMP) adducts to such an extent that the "6-in" DeltaHT R form remains the dominant form even at pH approximately 10.

Abstract
Rapid atropisomerization of cisplatin-DNA cross-link models, cis-PtA(2)G(2) (A(2) = two amines or a diamine, G = guanine derivative, bold font indicating a guanine not linked to another guanine), makes their NMR spectra uninformative. The conformers [two head-to-tail (DeltaHT and LambdaHT) conformers, one head-to-head (HH) conformer] are detected in (CCC)PtG(2) retro models (CCC = chirality-controlling chelates designed to reduce rotation around the G N7 to Pt bond by destabilizing the transition state). Clear trends are found with four CCC ligands, 2,2'-bipiperidine (Bip) and N,N'-dimethyl-2,3-diaminobutane (each with S,R,R,S and R,S,S,R configurations at the chelate ring N, C, C, and N atoms, respectively). S,R,R,S ligands favor left-handed G base canting and the LambdaHT form; R,S,S,R ligands favor right-handed canting and the DeltaHT form. The HH conformer is normally negligible unless G = 5'-GMP. However, understanding this 5'-phosphate effect is complicated by possible interligand interactions of the 5'-phosphate with the N1H of the cis-5'-GMP and a CCC NH; these interactions are referred to as second-sphere (SSC) and first-to-second-sphere (FSC) communication, respectively. We now investigate the four (CCC)PtG(2) models with 1-Me-5'-GMP, a G lacking the N1H needed for SSC. The phosphate location makes FSC possible in the major but not the minor HT form. The major form should increase from pH 3 to pH 7 because the phosphate is deprotonated at pH 7. However, the major DeltaHT form for the R,S,S,R pair did not change in abundance, and the major LambdaHT form for the S,R,R,S pair actually decreased. Thus, FSC is weak. At pH approximately 7 the HH conformer of the S,R,R,S pair had an abundance (40-44%) higher than that in any reported cis-PtA(2)G(2) adduct. FSC involving one 1-Me-5'-GMP could play a role. The high HH abundance and use of a pH jump experiment with (S,R,R,S)-BipPt(1-Me-5'-GMP)(2) allowed us to obtain the first deconvoluted CD spectrum for a cis-PtA(2)G(2) HH conformer. The CD features for the HH conformer are much weaker than for the HT conformers. Our findings are best interpreted to indicate that FSC is not important in aqueous solution, especially for the HT form. Weak FSC is consistent with recent models of the cross-link in duplexes. In contrast, crystals of fluxional models often reveal FSC, but not the more important SSC. SSC was unrecognized until our retro model studies, and the new results reinforce the value of studying retro models for identifying interactions in solution.

Abstract
Guanine O6 to carrier ligand hydrogen bonding is a central feature of many hypotheses advanced to explain the anticancer activity of cis-type anticancer drugs, cis-PtA(2)X(2) (A(2) = diamine or two amines). Early structural evidence suggested that cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)(d(GpG)) (the cross-link model for the key cisplatin-DNA adduct) and other cis-PtA(2)(d(GpG)) adducts exist exclusively or mainly as the HH1 conformer with head-to-head (HH) bases. The dynamic motion of the d(GpG) in these adducts is too rapid to permit definitive characterization of both the conformation and the H-bonding. Hence, we use retro models having A(2) ligands designed to slow the motion. Here, we employ Me(2)ppz (N,N'-dimethylpiperazine), which lacks NH groups. Me(2)ppz is unique in having sp(3) N-methyl groups directly in the coordination plane, allowing the coexistence of multiple conformers but hindering dynamic motion in Me(2)ppzPt(d(GpG)) and Me(2)ppzPt(GpG) retro models. Dynamic processes are decreased enough in Me(2)ppzPt(d(GpG)) to permit HPLC separation of three abundant forms. After HPLC separation, the three re-equilibrate, proving that the three forms must be conformers and that Me(2)ppz has little influence on conformer distribution. This marks the first reported characterization of three abundant conformers for one cis-PtA(2)(d(GpG)) adduct. From NMR evidence, the Me(2)ppzPt(d(GpG)) HH1 conformer has uncanted bases. Another conformer, one of two recently discovered conformer types, has head-to-tail (HT) bases with Delta chirality. For this Delta HT1 form, several lines of evidence establish that the dinucleotide moieties have essentially identical structures in d(GpG) (and GpG) adducts of Me(2)ppzPt and other cis-PtA(2) complexes. For example, the shifts of the highly structure-sensitive G H8 NMR signals are almost identical for the Delta HT1 form of all adducts. In previous models, the stabilization of the Delta HT1 form could be attributed to G O6 H-bonding to A(2) NH groups. Such H-bonds are not possible for Me(2)ppz. The unambiguous conclusions are that G O6 H-bonding is weak and that neither canting nor H-bonding is essential in HH forms. These two features are present in almost all other small models but are essentially absent in the cross-link base pair (bp) step in duplexes. We conclude from our work that the forces favoring canting and H-bonding are weak, and we hypothesize that steric effects within the Lippard bp step adjacent to this cross-link bp step easily overcome these forces.

Abstract
We employ retro models, cis-PtA2G2 (A2 = a diamine, G = guanine derivative), to assess the cross-linked head-to-head (HH) form of the cisplatin-DNA d(GpG) adduct widely postulated to be responsible for the anticancer activity. Retro models are designed to have minimal dynamic motion to overcome problems recognized in models derived from cisplatin [A2 = (NH3)2]; the latter models are difficult to understand due to rapid rotation of G bases about the Pt-N7 bond in solution and the dominance of the head-to-tail (HT) form in the solid. Observation of an HH form is unusual for cis-PtA2G2 models. Recently, we found the first HH forms for a cis-PtA2G2 model with A2 lacking NH groups in a study of new Me2ppzPtG2 models. (Me2ppz, N,N'-dimethylpiperazine, has inplane bulk which reduces dynamic motion by clashing with the G O6 as the base rotates into the coordination plane from the ground state position approximately perpendicular to this plane G = 5'-GMP and 3'-GMP.) The finding of an HH form (albeit in a mixture with HT forms) with both G H8 signals unusually downfield encouraged us to study additional Me2ppzPtG2 analogues in order to explain the unusual spectral features and to identify factors that influence the relative stability of HT and HH forms. Molecular modeling techniques suggest HH structures with the H8's close to the deshielding region of the z axis of the magnetically anisotropic Pt atom, explaining the atypical shift pattern. When G = 1-Me-5'-GMP, we obtained NMR evidence that the HH rotamer has a high abundance (34%) and that the three rotamers have nearly equal abundance. These findings and the observation that the relative HT distributions varied little or not at all as a function of pH when G = Guo, 1-MeGuo, or 1-Me-5'-GMP are consistent with two of our earlier proposals concerning phosphate groups in HT forms of cis-PtA2(GMP)2 complexes. We proposed that a G phosphate group can form hydrogen bonds with the cis G N1H ("second-sphere" communication) and (for 5'-phosphate) A2 NH groups. The new results with 1-Me-5'-GMP led us to propose a new role for a 5'-phosphate group; it can also favor the HH form by counteracting the natural preference for the G bases to adopt an HT orientation. Finally, the HH form was also sufficiently abundant to allow observation of a distinct 195Pt NMR signal (downfield of the resonance observed for the HT forms) for several complexes. This is the first report of an HH 195Pt NMR signal for cis-PtA2G2 complexes.

Abstract
Cisplatin forms the cis-Pt(NH3)2(d(GpG)) cross-link with DNA. We have recently created novel d(GpG) conformations by using "retro models" (complexes having bulky carrier ligands designed to slow d(GpG) dynamic motion). Our results define four conformer classes: HH1, HH2, delta HT1, and delta HT2, with a head-to-head or head-to-tail base orientation and a phosphodiester backbone with a normal (1) or opposite (2) propagation direction. Moreover, each G residue can be syn or anti, and the base canting can be left-handed (L) or right-handed (R). Thus, 32 variants of cis-Pt(NH3)2(d(GpG)) are conceivable, but the adduct is too dynamic to study. Thus far, by using retro models, we have obtained evidence for five variants with d(GpG) but only four with GpG. We therefore selected Me2DAPPt(GpG) complexes for study by 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy, CD spectroscopy, and molecular mechanics and dynamics (MMD) calculations. Coordinated Me2DAP (N,N'-dimethyl-2,4-diaminopentane) has N, C, C, N chiral centers designated, for example, as R,R,R,R. This ligand has greater flexibility and more readily inverted N centers than ligands used previously in GpG retro models. One goal was to determine whether the GpG ligand can control the configuration of a carrier ligand. (R,R,R,R)-Me2DAPPt(GpG) forms the anti, anti HH1 R variant almost exclusively. Equal populations of the two possible linkage isomers of (S,R,R,R)-Me2DAPPt(GpG) are formed, both favoring the anti, anti HH1 R, variant; however, the isomer with the 5'-G cis to the S nitrogen has sharper signals, suggesting that interligand interactions are more favorable. Indeed, this linkage isomer was the major product of isomerization when (R,R,R,R)-Me2DAPPt(GpG) was kept at pH approximately 9.5 to allow N center equilibration. Steric clashes between the Me2DAP C-Me groups and the G O6 atoms found by MMD calculations appear to disfavor the HH1 conformer of (S,S,S,S)-Me2DAPPt(GpG) and (S,S,S,R)-Me2DAPPt(GpG) complexes. These two complexes have a significant population of the anti, syn delta HT1 conformer, as indicated by broad 1H NMR signals and by 31P NMR and CD data. Equilibration of (S,S,S,R)-Me2DAPPt(GpG) at pH 9.5 leads to a mixture of (S,S,S,S)-Me2DAPPt(GpG) and at least one isomer of (S,S,S,R)-Me2DAPPt(GpG). Thus, second-sphere communication (hydrogen bonding and steric interligand interactions) influences both GpG conformation and Me2DAP configuration.

Abstract
Coordinated N,N',N"-trimethyldiethylenetriamine (Me3dien) has several possible configurations: two have mirror symmetry (R,S configurations at the terminal nitrogens) and the terminal N-Me's anti or syn with respect to the central N-Me (anti-(R,S) and syn-(R,S) isomers, respectively), and two are nonsymmetrical (R,R and S,S configurations at terminal nitrogens, rac denotes a 1:1 mixture of the two isomers). For each configuration, two Me3dienPtG atropisomers can be formed (anti or syn orientation of central N-Me and G 06, G = guanine derivative), and these can be observed since the terminal N-Me's decrease the rate of G rotation about the Pt-N7 bond. In symmetrical syn-(R,S)-Me3dienPtG derivatives with G = 9-EtG and 3'-GMP, the anti rotamer, which can form O6-NH H-bonds, was slightly favored over the syn rotamer but never more than 2:1. This anti rotamer is also favored by lower steric repulsion between the terminal N-Me's and G O6; thus, the contribution of O6-NH H-bonding to the stability of the anti rotamer could be rather small. With G = 5'-GMP, an O6-NH H-bond in the anti rotamer and a phosphate-NH H-bond in the syn rotamer can form. Only the syn rotamer was detected in solution, indicating that NH H-bonds to 5'-phosphate are far more important than to O6, particularly since steric factors favor the anti rotamer. Interconversion between rotamers was faster for syn-(R,S)- than for rac-Me3dien derivatives. This appears to be determined by a smaller steric impediment to G rotation of two "quasi equatorial" N-Me's, both on one side of the platinum coordination plane (syn-(R,S) isomer), than one "quasi equatorial" and one "quasi axial" N-Me on either side of the coordination plane (rac isomer).

Abstract
Most simple cis-PtA2G2 complexes that model the G-G cross-link DNA lesions caused by the clinically used anticancer drug cis-PtCl2(NH3)2 undergo large fluxional motions at a rapid rate (A2 = two amines or a diamine; G = guanine derivative). The carrier amine ligands in active compounds have NH groups, but the fundamental role of the NH groups has been obscured by the dynamic motion. To assess carrier ligand effects, we examine retro models, cis-PtA2G2 complexes, in which dynamic motion has been reduced by the incorporation of steric bulk into the carrier ligands. In this study we introduce a new approach employing the chirality-neutral chelate (CNC) ligand, Me2ppz (N,N'-dimethylpiperazine). Because they lie in the Pt coordination plane, the methyl groups of Me2ppz do not clash with the 06 of the base of G ligands in the ground state, but such clashes sterically hinder dynamic motion. NMR spectroscopy provided conclusive evidence that Me2ppzPt(GMP)2 complexes (GMP = 5'- and 3'-GMP) exist as a slowly interconverting mixture of two dominant head-to-tail (HT) conformers and a head-to-head (HH) conformer. Since the absence of carrier ligand chirality precluded using NMR methods to determine the absolute conformation of the two HT conformers, we used our recently developed CD pH jump method to establish chirality. The most abundant HT Me2ppzPt(5'-GMP)2 form had A chirality. Previously this chirality was shown to be favored by phosphate-cis G NIH hydrogen-bonding interligand interactions; such interactions also favor the HT conformers over the HH conformer. For typical carrier ligands, G O6 and phosphate interactions with the carrier ligand NH groups also favor the HT forms. These latter interactions are absent in Me2ppzPt(GMP)2 complexes, but the HT forms are still dominant. Nevertheless, we do find the first evidence for an HH form of a simple cis-PtA2G2 model with A2 lacking any NH groups. In previous studies, the absence of the HH conformer in cis-PtA2G2 complexes lacking carrier NH groups may be due to the presence of out-of-plane carrier ligand bulk. Such bulk forces both G O6-G O6 and G O6-carrier ligand clashes, thereby disfavoring the HH form. The major DNA cross-link adduct has the HH conformation. Thus, for anticancer activity, the small bulk of the NH group may be more important than the H-bonding interaction.

Abstract
Features of cisplatin-type anticancer drug adducts with nucleic acids and their constituents are clouded because they exist as a fluxional mixture of conformers. Retro-model adducts containing the specially designed chiral diamine ligand, Bip = 2,2'-bipiperidine, are dramatically less fluxional. Conformers of BipPtG(2) adducts with R,S,S,R and S,R,R,S asymmetric centers at the N, C, C, and N Bip chelate ring atoms and G = 5'-GMP, 5'-dGMP, 3'-GMP, or 9-ethylguanine are amenable to separate characterization. All possible BipPtG(2) atropisomers (one head-to-head (HH) and Delta and Lambda head-to-tail (HT) atropisomers) were observed by NMR spectroscopy. At equilibrium at low pH, one HT atropisomer dominates. CD spectra, G H8 chemical shifts, and low-pH equilibria of BipPtG(2) and Me(2)()DABPtG(2) (Me(2)()DAB = N,N '-dimethyl-2,3-diaminobutane) are similar when the chelate ring atoms have the same stereochemistries; thus, Bip and Me(2)()DAB are termed chirality-controlling chelates (CCC) since these ligands dictate the absolute conformation of the major HT rotamer. In each case, the HT conformer that cannot form G O6-NH(CCC) hydrogen bonds was dominant, and the G H8 chemical shift indicated that this conformer had less tilted bases, allowing favorable base-base dipole-dipole interactions. For both the R,S,S,R and S,R,R,S Bip chiralities of the BipPt(3'-GMP)(2) complexes, the percentage of DeltaHT rotamer increased near pH 7, a probable consequence of phosphate-cis-G hydrogen bonds accompanied by favorable dipole interactions of less tilted bases. For the 5'-GMP complexes, these factors favor the LambdaHT rotamer near pH 7. When G has a 5'-phosphate group, rotamer distribution is also influenced by phosphate-NH(Bip) hydrogen bonds. At high pH, the nature and/or strength of interactions such as G dipole-G dipole interactions and G O6-NH(Bip) and phosphate-cis-G hydrogen bonding are altered by G N(1)H deprotonation. The features of the complexes at high pH can be largely explained as arising from the net result of these interactions. This information from retro models with a CCC ligand lays the foundation for understanding and evaluating the properties of the highly dynamic adducts of anticancer drugs.

Abstract
The key problem obscuring the role of the ammine and primary amine groups in the activity of clinically used Pt anticancer drugs is the dynamic character of adducts with DNA and DNA constituents. To address this problem, we introduced the hybrid ligand approach with the diamine pipen = 2-(aminomethyl)piperidine; the piperidine ring greatly reduces dynamic motion in adducts. We now use NMR and CD methods to investigate (S,R)- and (R,S)-pipenPtG(2) complexes (with S,R and R,S configurations at the N and C pipen asymmetric centers, respectively; G = a guanine derivative). Each pipenPtG(2) complex can have two head-to-head (HH) and two head-to-tail (HT) rotamers. However, only the two HT atropisomers were detected. The Delta or Lambda chirality of each HT rotamer was determined from NOESY/EXSY spectra and/or the sign of the CD signal. Examination of adducts with G = 5'-GMP, 3'-GMP, or 9-EtG (9-ethylguanine) allowed us to assess the effects of different N9 substituents and pipen chirality on the stability and spectral properties of the atropisomers. For the 9-EtG complexes, the HT atropisomers were nearly equally stable, indicating that the pipen configuration has little influence when the N9 substituent lacks a phosphate group. However, for GMP complexes, several factors influence both relative abundance and shifts of the H8 signals of the DeltaHT and LambdaHT forms at neutral pH. The chirality of the major HT form of the (S,R)- and (R,S)-pipenPt(5'-GMP)(2) complexes was Lambda and Delta, respectively. Therefore, the chirality of the pipen ligand is an important determinant of HT chirality for pipenPt(5'-GMP)(2). Since, for 5'-GMP, phosphate-NH(pipen) hydrogen bonding is possible, this interaction probably favors the major atropisomer, in which two such interactions are possible, over the minor atropisomer, in which only one interaction is possible. The DeltaHT form was dominant for both (S,R)- and (R,S)-pipenPt(3'-GMP)(2). The stability arises from the more favorable interactions between the phosphates and the NH's of the cis 3'-GMP's in the DeltaHT vs the LambdaHT form. This hydrogen bonding is more favorable when the G bases have less tilt, and less tilted G's are associated with more favorable dipole-dipole interactions and deshielded H8 signals. We showed that 3'-GMP adducts favor the DeltaHT conformer at pH7; the DeltaHT conformer preference explains the enhanced "Delta" CD signal observed for most 3'-GMP adducts, including the cisplatin adduct.

Abstract
A fundamental problem obscuring the role of the ammine and primary amine groups in the activity of clinically used Pt anticancer drugs is the dynamic character of the adducts with DNA and DNA constituents. Dynamic motion is slower in analogues containing only secondary or tertiary amines, but such agents are not used clinically. Recently we found that enclosing the N center within a piperidine (pip) ring greatly reduces dynamic motion. In this work, we test the hypothesis that a diamine with only one pip ring, 2-aminomethylpiperidine (pipen), would slow dynamic motion enough for insightful study of adducts with one site (cis to the primary amine) closely reflecting the coordination environment of clinically used drugs. Racemic pipen was prepared and resolved by improved methods. PtCl(2)(pipen) synthesized with the pipen enantiomer having an R configuration of the asymmetric carbon (determined on the basis of the [alpha](D) sign) has the S stereochemistry at the N asymmetric center. In the adduct (S,R)-pipenPt(5'-GMP)(2), restricted rotation of the two nonequivalent N7-coordinated 5'-GMP's about the Pt-N7 bonds potentially could lead to two head-to-tail (LambdaHT and DeltaHT) and two head-to-head (HH(1) and HH(2)) atropisomers. However, 1D and 2D NOESY NMR data at pH approximately 3 indicated the dominance of the two HT atropisomers in a LambdaHT:DeltaHT ratio of 2:1. Deprotonation of the phosphate group (pH 7) further stabilized the LambdaHT form, and the CD signal had the shape characteristic of a LambdaHT form with a positive peak at approximately 280 nm. However, at pH 9.5, where the 5'-GMP N1H was largely deprotonated, the NMR spectrum and the approximately 280 nm CD peak both revealed that the LambdaHT form had decreased. When the pH was jumped down to 6.9, the NMR signals of the LambdaHT form and the approximately 280 nm CD peak increased with a half-time of approximately 3 min. Thus, the pip ring lengthens the atropisomerization time from seconds for ethylenediaminePt(5'-GMP)(2) to minutes for (S,R)-pipenPt(5'-GMP)(2). This pH jump experiment indicates that the signs of the CD signal are opposite for the LambdaHT and DeltaHT forms. Changes with pH in both the relative abundance and shifts of the H8 signals of the LambdaHT and DeltaHT forms correlated with an increase in hydrogen bonding by the phosphate group of the 5'-GMP cis to the primary amine. The hydrogen bonding changes the 5'-GMP base tilt and hence the H8 chemical shift. Such information is not obtainable on 5'-GMP adducts of clinically used anticancer drugs.
