Abstract

Two complexes were obtained during the reactions of 6-amino-1-methyl-5-nitrosouracil (AMNU) and 6-methylamino-1-benzyl-5-nitrosouracil (MABNU) with cis-diaquadiamineplatinum(II) nitrate complex, cis-[Pt(NH(3))(2)(H(2)O)(2)](NO(3))(2). The complexes were isolated in good yields as powdery precipitates. They were characterized through their elemental analysis, infrared, UV-vis, and (1)H NMR spectroscopies as well as thermal analyses. The obtained results indicated that, pyrimidine bases substitute easily aqua ligands and interact with Pt(II) ions as a monodentate ligand in the neutral and ionic form for the ligands AMNU and MABNU, respectively. The exocyclic oxygen atoms are the most probable binding site. Square planar structures, cis-form, were proposed in both cases. The free ligands, and their Pt(II) complexes were screened for their antimicrobial activities.
