A platinum(II)-based major groove binder [Pt-II(C boolean AND N) (C NR)(2)](+) (HC boolean AND N = 2-phenylpyridine (phpy), R = 2-naphthyl) was identified as a potent human topoisomerase II alpha poison. It stabilizes the covalent TopoII alpha-DNA cleavage complex and induces cancer cell death with potency significantly higher than the widely clinically used TopoII alpha poison Vp-16.
