Abstract

Dimethylgermanium derivatives of dipeptides, Me(2)GeAA (H(2)AA = H(2)glygly, H(2)glyala, H(2)glyval, H(2)glyleu, H(2)glymet) have been obtained by the reaction of Me2GeBr2 with H(2)AA in the presence of triethylamine. The crystal structure of Me(2)Geglygly has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The dipeptide is tridentately coordinated to germanium, which has a distorted trigonal bipyramidal environment. From infrared and Raman data, analogous molecular structures are inferred for the other dimethylgermanium derivatives of dipeptides. H-1 NMR measurements show that Me(2)Geglygly is completely hydrolyzed in aqueous solution to give H(2)glygly and (Me2GeO)(x). In vivo tests with Me(2)Geglygly showed no toxic or antitumor activity against murine leukemia P388.
