The nature of this study involved the preparation of the coordination compounds of platinum (II) and four alpha-amino acids, namely arginine, histidine, lysine, and serine. A first analysis of the problem would seem to indicate that the preparations should be straightforward and not difficult. Bailar (3) stresses the great coordination tendency of the alpha-amino acids. Secondly, Volshtein (37) (38) (39) (40) (41) (41) and others have synthesized a number of platinum (II) complexes of the alpha-amino acids with apparently a minimum of difficulty in a majority of the preparations. FInally, a number of complexes of the amino acids under study have been prepared with other metals including cobalt, copper, chromium, and zinc.
