Abstract
Our proposal is to combine in one drug the antiviral activity of nucleotide analogues with ability of cisplatin type complexes to transport ligands to target sites and render them resistent to enzymatic degradation. We will prepare and structurally characterize Pt(II) coordination compounds with acyclovir (acv, 9-Š(2-hydroxyethoxy)methylĆguanine) and Pt(II) coordination compounds with acv and amino acids. Besides cisplatin other Pt(II) precursors will be used also. Solid phases will be structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction. The speciation and structural relations in aqueous solutions will be studied by HPLC and NMR.
