Platinum complexes with N,N'-bis(1-hydroxybut-2-yl)ethylenediamine, [PtCl2(ethambutol)] were prepared and the biological activity of three isomers [with (-), (+) and (+/-) ethambutol, respectively] investigated. All species interact with the Bam HI and Ava I recognition sequences showing a binding preference for GC rich sequences of DNA. The complex which showed the greatest interaction with adjacent guanines, [PtCl2[+/-)ethambutol)] was also found to be the most mutagenic of the three. On the other hand, only [PtCl2[+)ethambutol)] had a considerable antitumour activity against both P388 leukaemia and Lewis lung carcinoma, and this was not correlated either with restriction enzyme blocking activity or with mutagenicity.
