The research work reported on the preparation, characterisation and applications of more than 50 salts of NTO has been reviewed thoroughly. A broad classification and sub classification of all these compounds has been given on the basis of nature of the compounds with which NTO forms salts. Attempt has been made to discuss the structure of these salts by summarising analytical data reported from 13C NMR. The structure as determined by IR spectroscopy as well as XRD has also been discussed briefly. A generalised mechanism for the thermolysis of the metal salts has also been given and any deviation from this has been narrated in particular cases. The kinetic details, thermodynamical and thermochemical data as well as performance parameters have also been reviewed. Thus, the futuristic potentials of these salts are analysed critically and further studies have been suggested.
Rapid atropisomerization of cisplatin-DNA cross-link models, cis-PtA(2)G(2) (A(2) = two amines or a diamine, G = guanine derivative, bold font indicating a guanine not linked to another guanine), makes their NMR spectra uninformative. The conformers [two head-to-tail (DeltaHT and LambdaHT) conformers, one head-to-head (HH) conformer] are detected in (CCC)PtG(2) retro models (CCC = chirality-controlling chelates designed to reduce rotation around the G N7 to Pt bond by destabilizing the transition state). Clear trends are found with four CCC ligands, 2,2'-bipiperidine (Bip) and N,N'-dimethyl-2,3-diaminobutane (each with S,R,R,S and R,S,S,R configurations at the chelate ring N, C, C, and N atoms, respectively). S,R,R,S ligands favor left-handed G base canting and the LambdaHT form; R,S,S,R ligands favor right-handed canting and the DeltaHT form. The HH conformer is normally negligible unless G = 5'-GMP. However, understanding this 5'-phosphate effect is complicated by possible interligand interactions of the 5'-phosphate with the N1H of the cis-5'-GMP and a CCC NH; these interactions are referred to as second-sphere (SSC) and first-to-second-sphere (FSC) communication, respectively. We now investigate the four (CCC)PtG(2) models with 1-Me-5'-GMP, a G lacking the N1H needed for SSC. The phosphate location makes FSC possible in the major but not the minor HT form. The major form should increase from pH 3 to pH 7 because the phosphate is deprotonated at pH 7. However, the major DeltaHT form for the R,S,S,R pair did not change in abundance, and the major LambdaHT form for the S,R,R,S pair actually decreased. Thus, FSC is weak. At pH approximately 7 the HH conformer of the S,R,R,S pair had an abundance (40-44%) higher than that in any reported cis-PtA(2)G(2) adduct. FSC involving one 1-Me-5'-GMP could play a role. The high HH abundance and use of a pH jump experiment with (S,R,R,S)-BipPt(1-Me-5'-GMP)(2) allowed us to obtain the first deconvoluted CD spectrum for a cis-PtA(2)G(2) HH conformer. The CD features for the HH conformer are much weaker than for the HT conformers. Our findings are best interpreted to indicate that FSC is not important in aqueous solution, especially for the HT form. Weak FSC is consistent with recent models of the cross-link in duplexes. In contrast, crystals of fluxional models often reveal FSC, but not the more important SSC. SSC was unrecognized until our retro model studies, and the new results reinforce the value of studying retro models for identifying interactions in solution.
