Abstract
Fifteen rhenium(I) tricarbonyl complexes of the form fac-[Re(N,O')(CO)3(X)], where N,O'-bidentate ligand = 2-picolinic acid (Pico); 3,5-difluoropyridine-2-carboxylic acid (Dfpc); 3-trifluoromethyl-pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (Tfpc) and X = H2O; pyrazole (Pz); pyridine (Py); imidazole (Im); and methanol (CH3OH) were synthesized using the '2 + 1' mixed ligand approach with an average yield of 84%. The complexes were characterized using the following spectroscopic techniques: IR, 1H and 13C NMR, UV/Vis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The effect of the fluorine atoms on the backbone of the N,O'-bidentate ligand was investigated and a trend was noticed in the carbonyl stretching frequencies: with Pico < Tfpc < Dfpc. The in vitro biological screening on Vero (healthy mammalian), HeLa (cervical carcinoma) and A549 (lung cancer) cells revealed one toxic complex, fac-[Re(Pico)(CO)3(H2O)], with respective LC50 values of 9.0 ± 0.9, 15.8 ± 4.9 (SI = 0.570) and 20.9 ± 0.8 (SI = 0.430) μg/mL. As a result, it can be used as a positive control drug of toxicity.

Abstract
Infections of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have triggered a global pandemic with millions of deaths worldwide. Herein, the synthesis of functionalized Re(i) tricarbonyl complexes as inhibitors of the SARS-CoV-2 main protease, also referred to as the 3-chymotrypsin-like protease (3CLpro), is presented. The metal complexes were found to inhibit the activity of the enzyme with IC50 values in the low micromolar range. Mass spectrometry revealed that the metal complexes formed a coordinate covalent bond with the enzyme. Chiral separation of the enantiomers of the lead compound showed that one enantiomer was significantly more active than the other, consistent with specific binding and much like that observed for conventional organic small molecule inhibitors and druglike compounds. Evaluation of the lead compound against SARS-CoV-2 in a cell-based infection assay confirmed enantiospecific inhibition against the virus. This study represents a significant advancement in the use of metal complexes as coordinate covalent inhibitors of enzymes, as well as a novel starting point for the development of novel SARS-CoV-2 inhibitors.

Abstract
Two rhenium complexes, namely, fac-tricarbonyl(triphenylphosphane-κP)(tropolonato-κ2O,O')rhenium(I), [Re(C7H5O2)(C18H15P)(CO)3] or fac-[Re(Trop)(PPh3)(CO)3] (1), and fac-tricarbonyl(3,5,7-tribromotropolonato-κ2O,O')(triphenylphosphane-κP)rhenium(I), [Re(C7H2Br3O2)(C18H15P)(CO)3] or fac-[Re(TropBr3)(PPh3)(CO)3] (2) (TropH is tropolone and and TropBr3H is tribromotropolone), were synthesized and their crystal and molecular structures confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Both crystallized in the space group P-1 and display an array of inter- and intramolecular interactions which were confirmed by solid-state 13C NMR spectroscopy using cross polarization magic angle spinning (CPMAS) techniques, as well as Hirshfeld surface analysis. The slightly longer Re-P distance of 1 [2.4987 (5) versus 2.4799 (11) Å for 1 and 2, respectively] suggests stronger back donation from the carbonyl groups in the former case, possibly due to the stronger electron-donating ability of the unsubstituted tropolonate ring system. However, this is not supported in the Re-CO bond distances of 1 and 2.

Abstract
The aquation reactions of four rhenium(I) dicarbonyl complexes, [Re(CO)2(NN)(PR3)(Cl)], where NN = 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) and 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline (DMPhen) and PR3 = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) and 1,4-diacetyl-1,3,7-triaza-5-phosphabicylco[3.3.1]nonane (DAPTA). Additionally, the anation reactions of the corresponding aqua complexes with Cl- were investigated. Single crystals of [Re(CO)2(DMPhen)(PTA)(Cl)]·DMF and [Re(CO)2(DMPhen)(DAPTA)(Cl)] were obtained, and their structures were determined using X-ray diffraction. The Re-Cl interatomic distances are 2.4991(13) and 2.4922(6) Å, respectively, indicating a mild trans influence effect of the phosphine ligands. The rate constants, kaq, for the aquation reactions of these complexes spanned a range of (3.7 ± 0.3) × 10-4 to (15.7 ± 0.3) × 10-4 s-1 with the two Phen complexes having rate constants that are 2.5 times greater than those of the DMPhen complexes at 298 K. Similarly, the second-order anation rate constants (kCl) of the resulting aqua complexes, [Re(CO)2(NN)(PR3)(H2O)]+, with Cl- ions at 298 K varied between (2.99 ± 0.05) × 10-3 and (6.79 ± 0.09) × 10-3 M-1 s-1. Likewise, these rate constants for the Phen complexes were almost 2 times faster than those of the DMPhen complexes. The pKa values of the four aqua complexes were determined to be greater than 9.0 for all of the complexes with [Re(CO)2(Phen)(PTA)(H2O)]+ having the highest pKa value of 9.28 ± 0.03. From the pKa values and the ratios of the aquation and anation rate contants, which give thermodynamic Cl- binding constants, the speciation of the rhenium(I) complexes in blood plasma, the cytoplasm, and the cell nucleus were estimated. The data suggest that the aqua complexes would be the dominant species in all three environments. This result may have important implications on the potential biological activity of these complexes.

Abstract
The synthesis and crystal structures of two new rhenium(I) complexes obtained utilizing benzhydroxamic acid (BHAH) and 3-hydroxyflavone (2-phenylchromen-4-one, FlavH) as bidentate ligands, namely tetraethylammonium fac-(benzhydroxamato-κ2O,O')bromidotricarbonylrhenate(I), (C8H20N)[ReBr(C7H6NO2)(CO)3], 1, and fac-aquatricarbonyl(4-oxo-2-phenylchromen-3-olato-κ2O,O')rhenium(I)-3-hydroxyflavone (1/1), [Re(C15H9O3)(CO)3(H2O)]·C15H10O3, 3, are reported. Furthermore, the crystal structure of free 3-hydroxyflavone, C15H10O3, 4, was redetermined at 100 K in order to compare the packing trends and solid-state NMR spectroscopy with that of the solvate flavone molecule in 3. The compounds were characterized in solution by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, and in the solid state by 13C NMR spectroscopy using the cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CP/MAS) technique. Compounds 1 and 3 both crystallize in the triclinic space group P-1 with one molecule in the asymmetric unit, while 4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121. Molecules of 1 and 3 generate one-dimensional chains formed through intermolecular interactions. A comparison of the coordinated 3-hydroxyflavone ligand with the uncoordinated solvate molecule and free molecule 4 shows that the last two are virtually completely planar due to hydrogen-bonding interactions, as opposed to the former, which is able to rotate more freely. The differences between the solid- and solution-state 13C NMR spectra of 3 and 4 are ascribed to inter- and intramolecular interactions. The study also investigated the potential labelling of both bidentate ligands with the corresponding fac-99mTc-tricarbonyl synthon. All attempts were unsuccessful and reasons for this are provided.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of the dicarbonyl mixed ligand cis-[Re(CO)2(quin)(cisc)(PPh3)] complex, 4, where quin is the deprotonated quinaldic acid, cisc is cyclohexyl isocyanide, and PPh3 is triphenylphosphine, is presented. The synthesis of 4 proceeds in three steps. In the first, the intermediate fac-[Re(CO)3(quin)(H2O)] aqua complex 2 is generated from the fac-[NEt4]2[Re(CO)3Br3] precursor, together with the brominated products fac-[Re(CO)3(quinH)(Br)] 1a and fac-[NEt4][Re(CO)3(quin)(Br)] 1b, in low yield. In the following step, replacement of the aqua ligand of complex 2 by the monodentate isocyanide ligand leads to the formation of fac-[Re(CO)3(quin)(cisc)], 3. In the third step replacement of the species trans to the isocyanide carbonyl group of 3 by a phosphine generates complex 4. The Re complexes 2-4 were prepared in high yield and fully characterized by elemental analysis, spectroscopic methods, and X-ray crystallography. At the technetium-99m (99mTc) tracer level, the analogous complexes 3' and 4' were produced in high radiochemical purity, characterized by comparative reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography and showed high resistance to transchelation by histidine or cysteine. This new [N,O][C][P] donor atom combination with the cis-[M(CO)2]+ core (M = Re, 99mTc) is a promising scaffold for the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic targeted radiopharmaceuticals.
