[Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl2 (pta)] (pta = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphatricyclo- [3.3.1.1]decane): a water soluble compound that exhibits pH dependent DNA binding providing selectivity for diseased cells

Abstract

The water soluble complex [Ru(η6-p-cymene)Cl2(pta)] (pta = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphatricyclo[3.3.1.1]decane), exhibits pH dependent DNA damage; the pH at which damage is greatest correlates well to the pH environment of cancer cells.
