The complexes [PdL2X2] where l= cytosine, 1-methylcytosine, cytidine, 2-amino-4- methylpyrimidine, 2-hydroxy-4-methylpyrimidine, 4-methylpyrimidine, 2-hydroxypyrimidine, 2, 4-diethoxy-5-methylpyrimidine, 2-hydroxypyridine, and methyl-4-picolinate, and X= Cl and Br, were prepared from the reaction of K2PdCl4 and L in aqueous solution. When l= cytosine, the cis-isomer was obtained, trans-Compounds were obtained with all other ...
