The present invention is directed to a manufacturing process for 1,2-diamino-cyclohexane-platinum(II) complexes, specifically to a manufacturing process for oxaliplatin.The process is straightforward, economical and applicable to industrial production. It comprises the reaction of (DACH)PtCl2 with silver sulfate (Ag2SO4) and the subsequent reaction of the resulting Pt sulfate complex (DACH)Pt(aq)2SO4 with barium oxalate (BaC2O4) or an equimolar mixture of barium hydroxide and oxalic acid to yield oxaliplatin in high purity with a low silver and low nitrate content.
