17 e−rhenium dicarbonyl CO-releasing molecules on a cobalamin scaffold for biological application†
Abstract
N–Re conjugate is produced in a short time and high yield from the reaction of [Et4N]2[ReIIBr4(CO)2] (ReCORM-1) with B12. The B12-ReII(CO)2 derivatives show a number of features which make them pharmaceutically acceptable CO-releasing molecules (CORMs). These
