The synthesis of rhenium and 99m-technetium complexes of dipyrazolemethanecarboxylates directly from the tetroxometallates is reported together with a 'one pot' synthesis of mixed ligand M(V) complexes. The rhenium complexes in all three oxidation states show strong fluorescence when the pyrazole groups have aromatic substituents with emission around 330 nm with both one and two photon excitation. The emission lifetimes of the complexes and free ligands differ considerably.

ER-phagy is a double-edged sword in the occurrence, development, and treatment of cancer; especially, its functions in immunotherapy are still unknown. In this work, we designed a theranostic Re complex () containing a BODIPY-derived ligand and a β-carboline ligand to target the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and block ER-phagy at the late stages. Interestingly, as validated both in vitro and in vivo, ER-phagy blockage greatly enhances the capability of to induce immunogenic cell death (ICD).

The development of multifunctional therapeutic agents is crucial for addressing complex diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. Herein, we report a ruthenium-rhenium (Ru-Re) complex that combines photodynamic therapy (PDT) and carbon monoxide (CO) generation capabilities. The Ru-Re complex shows promising photophysical property and significant therapeutic potential.

A series of substituted 2-(2-benzylidenehydrazinyl)benzothiazole Schiff-base derivatives and complexes containing Re(I) were synthesized and analyzed using various characterization techniques, including elemental analysis, conductance measurement, H-NMR, FT-IR, and LC-MS. The biological activities of the compounds were evaluated. Binding affinity between the complexes and calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) was conducted using UV-visible spectroscopy, viscosity measurement, fluorescence spectroscopy, and molecular docking studies, indicating intercalation binding mode.

Improvements to the understanding of how reaction conditions influence the performance of molecular electrocatalysts are important. There exists a wide range of solution conditions that are used in the investigation of the properties and performance of electrocatalysts, from the choice of solvent or electrolyte to the identity and nature of other additives, like Brønsted acids. Herein, we demonstrate how the choice of solvent can have a significant impact on the observed rate constants for CO-to-CO conversion by a series of rhenium(I) diimine complexes.
