dc.description.abstractThe potential chemotherapeutic properties coupled to photochemical transitions make the family of fac-[Re(CO)3(N,N)X]0/+ (N,N = a bidentate diimine such as 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy); X = halide, H2O, pyridine derivatives, PR3, etc.) complexes of special interest. We have investigated reactions of the aqua complex fac-[Re(CO)3(bpy)(H2O)](CF3SO3) (1) with potential anticancer activity with the amino acid l-cysteine (H2Cys), and its derivative N-acetyl-l-cysteine (H2NAC), as well as the tripeptide glutathione (H3A), under physiological conditions (pH 7.4, 37 °C), to model the interaction of 1 with thiol-containing proteins and enzymes, and the impact of such coordination on its photophysical properties and cytotoxicity. We report the syntheses and characterization of fac-[Re(CO)3(bpy)(HCys)]·0.5H2O (2), Na(fac-[Re(CO)3(bpy)(NAC)]) (3), and Na(fac-[Re(CO)3(bpy)(HA)])·H2O (4) using extended X-ray absorption spectroscopy, IR and NMR spectroscopy, electrospray ionization spectrometry, as well as the crystal structure of {fac-[Re(CO)3(bpy)(HCys)]}4·9H2O (2 + 1.75 H2O). The emission spectrum of 1 displays a variance in Stokes shift upon coordination of l-cysteine and N-acetyl-l-cysteine. Laser excitation at λ = 355 nm of methanol solutions of 1–3 was followed by measuring their ability to produce singlet oxygen (1O2) using direct detection methods. The cytotoxicity of 1 and its cysteine-bound complex 2 was assessed using the MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line, showing that the replacement of the aqua ligand on 1 with l-cysteine significantly reduced the cytotoxicity of the Re(I) tricarbonyl complex. Probing the cellular localization of 1 and 2 using X-ray fluorescence microscopy revealed an accumulation of 1 in the nuclear and/or perinuclear region, whereas the accumulation of 2 was considerably reduced, potentially explaining its reduced cytotoxicity.
