“…[17][18][19][20] The present knowledge about the correlation between the structure and the chemical nature of the amorphous platinum blues is largely based on the studies of crystalline platinum pyrimidine complexes, 17,21-23 the breakthrough being the crystal structure determination of tetranuclear platinum α-pyridone blue. 24 Studies on amorphous platinum nucleoside (modified nucleosides) complexes in the solid state have been carried out by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), 25, 26 wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS), [27][28][29][30][31] anomalous wide angle X-ray scattering (AWAXS), 32, 33 small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) 34 and in solution by SAXS, 3,30,31, 35 UV/VIS spectroscopy 36-38 and 195 Pt, 15 N and 13 C NMR spectroscopy. 37,39,40 Recently the structure of platinum uridine green sulfate was studied in the solid state by AWAXS and EXAFS methods.…”
