Structure-activity relationships for a class of platinumo coordination compounds confirmed that only those compounds having cis geometryl block cell growth. The most active complex was found to exhibit antitumor activity, whereas its trans isomer showed no such activity. Many derivatives of cisplatin also inhibit growth, and these compounds have at least one N-H group, which is responsible for important hydrogen-bond donor properties, either in the approach of the biological target or the final structure. Many other active Pt(II) compounds are known now, even with trans geometries.
