Enhanced receptor selectivity: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are relevant for both cancer diagnosis and therapy. Combining non-radioactive Re compounds with their radioactive (99m)Tc homologs enables the use of identical molecules for therapy and imaging (theragnostic). The syntheses and in vitro evaluation of [(Cp-R)M(CO)(3)] (Cp=cyclopentadienyl, M=Re, (99m)Tc) with R being a highly potent carbonic-anhydrase-targeting vector is reported.

The diagnosis and treatment of Chagas disease (CD) in the chronic phase remains a challenge. With that in mind, a potential theranostic device based on the trypanocidal agent known as megazol and the -M(CO) (M = Re or Tc) fragment is proposed in the present work. The peripheral structure of megazol (L) was modified to obtain the compounds L (R1 = H, R2 = Me and R1 = R2 = Me), which were used in the syntheses of complexes of composition [ReBr(CO)L].

We report the synthesis, characterization, and in vitro biological activities of [Re(η-arene)]-terpyridine conjugates and their Cu complexes. The terpyridine (terpy) chelators were attached to the [Re(η-arene)] scaffold via secondary amine linkers allowing for heteroleptic mono- and homoleptic bis-terpyridine-substituted chelators. Complexation with CuCl afforded the respective square pyramidal [Cu(terpy)Cl] complexes hosted on the [Re(η-arene)] scaffold.

The - rearrangements in [MX(CO)] (M = Re, Tc) induced by a pincer-type ligand (PNP) and a "halide scavenger" are reported. The reactions of -[Tc(CO)(OH)] or [TcO] in saline both yield -[Tc(PNP)(CO)], the first example of a -{Tc(CO)} type complex. In contrast, reactions with terpyridine (terpy) only gave the facial κ-terpy complexes with Re and Tc.

The pursuit of molecular imaging for tumors has led to endeavors focused on targeting epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFR) through monoclonal antibodies or radionuclide-labelled EGF analogs with Tc, In, or I. In this context, various Tc-labeled EGFR inhibitors using quinazoline structures have been reported based on the so-called pendant approach and on two types of complexes and labelling strategies: "4 + 1" mixed ligand complexes and -tricarbonyl complexes. Apart from this approach, which alters lead structures by linking pharmacophores to chelator frameworks through different connectors, the integrated incorporation of topoisomerase and tyrosine kinase inhibitors into Re and Tc complexes has not been explored.

Metal complexes with the general formula [M(CO)(k-L)], where M = Re, Re, or Tc and L = 1,4,7-triazacyclononane (TACN), NOTA, or NODAGA chelators, have previously been conjugated to peptide-based biological targeting vectors and investigated as potential theranostic radiopharmaceuticals. The promising results demonstrated by these bioconjugate complexes prompted our exploration of other TACN-based chelators for suitability for (radio)labeling with the [M(CO)] core. In this work, we investigated the role of the TACN pendant arms in complexation of the [M(CO)] core through (radio)labeling of TACN chelators bearing acid, ester, mixed acid-ester, or no pendant functional groups.
