Synthesis, characterization, photochemistry and anticancer activity of novel photoactivatable platinum(IV) diazidodihydroxido complexes
PtIV-diazidodihydroxido complexes are inert in the dark, but can be selectively activated by irradiation with light and become potently cytotoxic towards cancer cells. By site-specific irradiation to tumour tissue, the side-effects to healthy tissue associated with conventional chemotherapeutics, su...
