Since 3-(2-nitrophenyl) propionic acid(NPPA) has been reported as a bioreductive prodrug moiety, herein we combined NPPA with cisplatin(compound 1) to improve its lipophilicity and targetability and then to improve the antitumor outcomes. In addition, compound 2 possessing 3-phenyl propionic acid(PPA) was also synthesized as a comparison to test the influence of the NPPA to the cytotoxicity, since PPA was not a bioreductive moiety. Bioevaluations showed that 1 displayed more potent antitumor potency than cisplatin and 2, suggesting Pt(II) complexes possessing NPPA groups may be a good strategy for future platinum drug discovery.展开更多
