Abstract

A series of novel, dinuclear (2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine)platinum(II) complexes containing bis(thioalkyl)-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane(12) (carborane) ligands were prepared and characterised, and their preliminary anti-cancer characteristics have been determined in vitro; the complexes are the first examples of bis-intercalator complexes containing a boron-rich carborane cage.
