Claims
- 1. A platinum complex represented by the following general formula (A): ##STR32## where X represents ##STR33## wherein R.sup.1 is an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group having up to 18 carbon atoms or a group --(Z)--R.sup.4 in which Z represents --CH.dbd.CH-- or an alkylene group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, and R.sup.4 is a phenyl group, a hydroxyphenyl group, an alkoxyphenyl group having 7 to 12 carbon atoms, a halogenophenyl group, a nitrophenyl group, an alkoxycarbonylphenyl group having 8 to 13 carbon atoms, a cyclohexyl group having an alkyl substituent having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or a group represented by the formula: ##STR34## R.sup.2 is a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 to 18 carbon atoms, R.sup.3 is a hydrogen atom, or R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are linked together to form an alkylene group having 2 to 7 carbon atoms, with the proviso that when there is a 5,6-double bond, R.sup.3 is not present; the dotted line indicates that the bond may be either a single bond or a double bond; the chain line indicates a conjugated system; the 1,2-diaminocyclohexane moiety has a cis-, trans-l- or trans-d-configuration; and Y represents an anion.
- 2. A platinum complex of claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 is a methyl, 2-tetrahydrofurylethyl, 2-furylethyl, m-hydroxyphenylethyl, p-chlorophenylethyl or 3,4-methylenedioxyphenylethyl group, R.sup.2 is a methyl group, and R.sup.3 is a hydrogen atom.
- 3. A platinum complex of claim 1, wherein Y is a univalent anion.
- 4. A platinum complex of claim 1, wherein Y is an anion selected from the group consisting of an aliphatic carboxylic acid ion having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, an NO.sub.3 ion, a halogen ion and X (X has the same meaning as defined in claim 1).
- 5. A pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of malignant tumors, which comprises a therapeutically effective amount of a platinum complex represented by the general formula (A) of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor.
