Photoluminescent DNA binding and cytotoxic activity of a platinum(ii) complex bearing a tetradentate β-diketiminate ligand
A platinum(II) complex of a monoanionic, tetradentate β-diketiminate (BDI) ligand with pendant quinoline arms, BDIQQH, is reported. The complex, [Pt(BDI[superscript QQ])]Cl, is emissive in DMSO, but non-emissive in aqueous buffer. Upon binding DNA in buffer, however, a 150-fold turn-on in emission i...
