Two deoxyglucose (DG) derivatives, (α,β)-2-deoxy-2-amino(ethylcarbamate)-D-glucose (ECB-DG) and (α,β)-2-deoxy-2-amino(1,2-dihydroxypropyl)-D-glucose (DHP-DG), were synthesized and radiolabeled successfully with [99mTc(H2O)3(CO)3]+ complex. [99mTc]-ECB-DG and [99mTc]-DHP-DG complexes were prepared (96% and 93% radiochemical purities respectively) by using 46 mCi of Na99mTcO4 in 1 mL saline. Radi...

A series of 15 glycoside-derived tricarbonyl(η(6)-arene)chromium complexes were prepared in 19-87% yield by heating fully acetylated or methylated aryl O-, S-, N- and C-glycosides of D-glucopyranose and D-mannopyranose with hexacarbonylchromium. All tricarbonylchromium complexes were fully characterized. The structures of nine crystalline complexes were determined by X-ray diffraction, revealin...

OBJECTIVE Rhenium is one of the most valuable elements for internal radiotherapy because (186)Re and (188)Re have favorable physical characteristics. However, there are problems when proteins such as antibodies are used as carriers of (186/188)Re. Labeling methods that use bifunctional chelating agents such as MAG3 require the conjugation of the (186/188)Re complex to protein after radiolabelin...

The photochemical and photophysical properties of a Re(I) tricarbonyl complex, ClRe(CO)3(nHo)2, where nHo = 9H-pyrido[3,4-b] indole (norharmane), were investigated in solution phase by combination steady state emission spectroscopy, laser flash photolysis (LFP) pulse radiolysis (PR) techniques. These results allowed us to identify study the reactivity β-carboline (nHo) Rhenium(I) complex main e...

Objective: Rhenium is one of the most valuable elements for internal radiotherapy because Re and Re have favorable physical characteristics. However, there are problems when proteins such as antibodies are used as carriers of Re. Labeling methods that use bifunctional chelating agents such as MAG3 require the conjugation of the Re complex to protein after radiolabeling with the bifunctional che...

Re(I) tricarbonyl polypyridine-based complexes are particularly attractive metal complexes in the field of inorganic chemical biology due to their luminescent properties, ease of conjugation to targeting biomolecules, and the possibility to prepare their "hot" (99m)Tc analogues for radioimaging. In this study, we prepared and characterized a novel, "clickable" complex, [Re(2,2'-bipyridine)(3-et...
