Syntheses and spectroscopic characterization of fac-[Re(CO)3(phen)(L)]PF6, L=trans- and cis-1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)ethylene

Synthesis, characterization and antiproliferative behavior of tricarbonyl complexes of rhenium(I) with some 6-amino-5-nitrosouracil derivatives: Crystal structure of fac-[ReCl(CO)3(DANU-N5,O4)] (DANU=6-amino-1,3-dimethyl-5-nitrosouracil)

“…Particularly, organometallic compounds of technecium(I) and rhenium(I) with modified analogues of thymidine are important for gene therapy monitoring and diagnosis/therapy of proliferating tumor cells [5]. Also, many rhenium(I) carbonyl complexes have been employed in the study of electron and energy transfer processes, chemiluminiscent and electroluminiscent systems [6][7][8]. Applications of the named compounds as luminiscent sensors [9], molecular materials for non-linear optics [10] or photoswitching [11] are also emerging.…”

Synthesis, spectroscopic studies and crystal structures of ReI(CO)3(NN)Cl complexes with N,N′-bis(substituted benzylidene)ethane-1,2-diamine Schiff base ligands

“…In general, the electronic absorption spectra of rhenium(I) diimine complexes show intense high-energy absorption bands at ca. 230-300 nm and low-energy absorption bands at above 350 nm [21,22]. The highenergy absorption bands, which are also found in the free diimine ligands, are assigned as p ?…”

Organometallic complexes of transition metals in luminescent cell imaging applications

“…These complexes have been widely studied due to their photophysical properties which are attractive for applications such as OLEDs [23e25], photovoltaics [26,27] and photoswitches [28,29] as well as cell imaging [4]. Typically rhenium polypyridine tricarbonyl complexes are phosphorescent through an MLCT mechanism involving the polypyridyl ligand, with only a minor role for the other ligands, and tuning of excitation and emission bands possible by altering the substitution pattern of the polypyridine.…”
