The aqueous chemistry <strong>of</strong> the organometallic cation [Re(CO)3(H2O)3] + has received much attention<br />
over the past decade, due to its relevance to the design <strong>of</strong> 186/188 Re radiopharmaceuticals as well as its<br />
ability to act as a surrogate for the chemistry <strong>of</strong> [ 99m Tc(CO)3] + . In many cases, these investigations<br />
have focused on reactions between biomolecules and [Re(CO)3(H2O)3] + . The attractiveness <strong>of</strong> this<br />
low-valent precursor results from its particularly high thermodynamic stability, that is, high<br />
substitution stability <strong>of</strong> CO ligands and substitution lability <strong>of</strong> water molecules, which can be easily<br />
replaced by a variety <strong>of</strong> mono, bis, and tridentate ligands <strong>of</strong> different size, shape, and donor atom sets. 1<br />
Here we report the synthesis, characterization and biological evaluation <strong>of</strong> new rhenium(I) complex<br />
with ferulic acid (3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-propenoic acid, C10H10O4). Ferulic acid is a<br />
phenolic acid <strong>of</strong> low toxicity, it can be absorbed and easily metabolized in the human body. Ferulic<br />
acid has been reported to have many physiological functions, including antioxidant, antiinflammatory,<br />
antithrombosis, and anticancer activities. 2 Because <strong>of</strong> these properties and its low<br />
toxicity, we decided to study interaction between trans-ferulic acid and [Re(CO)3(H2O)3] + cation, and<br />
possibility <strong>of</strong> using phenolic acid – rhenium(I) complexes in biomedicine. The corresponding complex<br />
was synthesized in a stepwise manner from [Re(CO)3(H2O)3]Br and trans-ferulic acid in methanol.<br />
The compound has been characterized by 1 H NMR, ESI-MS and IR spectroscopy. Crystal structure<br />
and biological activity <strong>of</strong> the corresponding complex will be discussed.<br />
