The photochemistry of a potential light-activated anticancer complex, trans,trans,trans-[PtIV(py)2(N3)2(OH)2], was explored by steady-state and laser flash photolysis. The photolysis was a multistage process with the formation of complexes trans-[PtIV(py)2(N3)(OH)2(H2O)]+ and/or trans-[PtIV(py)2(N3)(OH)3] due to chain photoaquation at the first stage.
