Computational molecular structures of cisplatin, carboplatin and oxaliplation. These platinum compounds are composed of doubly charged platinum ion surrounded by four ligands; with the amine ligands on the left forming stronger interactions with the platinum ion, and the chloride ligands or carboxylate compounds on the right forming leaving groups allowing the platinum ion to form bonds with DNA bases (Goodsell, 2006).
