Abstract

The reaction of iproplatin with reduced glutathione at different mole ratios yielded cis-di(isopropylamine)chloro-glutathionatoplatinum(II), not the expected cis-dichloro- species, indicating a mode of action of this Anticancer agent that is different from that of cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II).
