CAS 10025-65-7: Platinum dichloride

Platinum(II) chloride is used as a catalyst for a variety of C-C bond, C-O bond, and C-N bond formation reactions. It acts as a precursor to prepare other platinum compounds such as cisplatin and dichloro(cycloocta-1,5-diene)platinum(II). This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.

Platinum(II) chloride (99.9%-Pt)

Platinum(II) chloride is a complex of platinum with chlorine and hydrogen. It is used as an anti-infective agent to treat infections caused by bacteria or fungi. Platinum(II) chloride complexes are stable in water and the body, which allows for long-term treatment without toxicity. Platinum(II) chloride complexes have been shown to be effective against tumor cells when used as a chemotherapy drug, with a variety of biological effects including inhibition of DNA polymerase activity and cell division. Platinum(II) chloride complexes also show good covalent binding properties with nitrogen atoms and structures that can be analyzed using analytical methods such as X-ray crystallography.
