cis- and trans- Platinum Isomers: Serendipity in Chemistry
"Testicular cancer went from a disease that normally killed about 80% of the patients, to one which is close to 95% curable. This is probably the most exciting development in the treatment of cancers that we have had in the past 20 years. It is now the treatment of first choice in ovarian, bladder, and osteogenicsarcoma [bone] cancers as well."
—Barnett Rosenberg, who led the research group that discovered cisplatin, commenting on the impact of cisplatin in cancer chemotherapy
Cisplatin was approved by the FDA for the treatment of genitourinary tumors in 1978.
Since then, Michigan State has collected over $160 million in royalties from cisplatin and a related drug, carboplatin, which was approved by the FDA in 1989 for the treatment of ovarian cancers.

Stephen J. Lippard et al. in Nature (1999), 399, 708 - 712Basis for recognition of cisplatin-modified DNA by high-mobility-group proteins
SUMMARY: The anticancer activity of cis -diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cisplatin) arises from its ability to damage DNA, with the major adducts formed being intrastrandd(GpG) and d(ApG)
Cisplatin acts by cross-linking DNA in several different ways, making it impossible for rapidly dividing cells to duplicate their DNA for mitosis. The damaged DNA sets off DNA repair mechanisms, which activate apoptosiswhen repair proves impossible. The trans-isomer does not have this pharmacological effect.

"Davison realized that fundamental coordination chemistrywould shed light on the chemical characteristics of the element technetium and that these basic chemical characteristics could be translated into the rational design of new radiopharmaceuticals," Orvig notes in the article. He calls Davison
"one of the fathers of medicinal inorganic chemistry.“

Remember???
For example: Nickel (1s2)(2s22p6)(3s23p6) (4s2) (3d8)
In complexes: [Ni2+] (1s2)(2s22p6)(3s23p6) (3d8) unpaired electrons!!!
For a 3d electron: Z* = Z – SZ*= 28 – [18 x (1.00)] – [7 x (o.35)] = 7.55
(1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p) (3d)
The 18 electrons in the 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, and 3p levels contribute 1.00each (Rule 3b); the other 7 electrons in 3d contribute 0.35 each,and the 4s electrons do not contribute (Rule 2).
For a 4s electron: Z* = Z – SZ* = 28 – [10 x (1.00)] – [16 x (o.85)] – [1 x (0.35)]
(1s, 2s, 2p) (3s, 3p, 3d) (4s)
Z* = 28 – 23.95 = 4.05 The 4s electrons are held less tightly than the 3d!
All transition metals loose ns electrons more readily than (n – 1)d electron:Ti(III): d1, V(III): d2, Mn(II): d5, Mn(III): d4, Mn(IV): d3, Mn(V): d2

Valence-Bond Theory
Chemistry of the d-Block Elements
Shortcomings of the Valence-Bond Theory
1) Fails to predict magnetic properties (unpaired electrons)e.g.: i) all Co(III) Complexes are diamagnetic; except [CoF6]3-, [CoF3(H2O)3]
ii) Cr(III) in Oh: 3 unpaired e−; Cr(II) in Oh: predicted: 2e−, exp.: 4 unpaired e−
2) Ni(II) planar vs. octahedral is supposed to introduce change from covalent to ionice.g.: [Ni(en)2]2+ 2NH3 [Ni(NH3)2(en)2]
3) Two Atomic Orbitals (AOs) produce MO(bonding) and MO(antibonding)

1) Only orbitals with same symmetry interact (e.g.: M=O or M≡O?)
2) For optimal interaction, energy difference should not be too large (e.g.: H-H, H-Cl, NaCl)
