Abstract
Nine new palladium(II) complexes of the formula [Pd(bipy)(AA)] n+ (where bipy is 2,2'-bipyridine, AA is an anion of L-cysteine, L-aspartic acid, L-glutamic acid, L-methionine, L-histidine, L-arginine, L-phenylalanine, L-tyrosine, or L-tryptophan, and n = 0 or 1) have been synthesized by interaction of [Pd(bipy)Cl 2] with an appropriate sodium salt of amino acid in water. These palladium(II) complexes have been characterized by chemical analysis and by visible, infrared, and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The modes of binding of amino acids in these palladium complexes have been ascertained by infrared and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The molar conductances of these complexes in water suggest that they are either nonelectrolytes or 1:1 electrolytes. These palladium complexes have shown growth inhibition against L1210 lymphoid leukemic, P388 lymphocytic leukemic, Sarcama 180, and Ehrlich ascites tumor cells. Some of these complexes show I.D. 50 values comparable to or lower than cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II)
