Rhenium‐Dicarbonyl‐Nitrosyl‐Komplexe mit Imidazol

Rhenium Dicarbonyl‐Nitrosyl Complexes with Imidazole Different rhenium‐dicarbonyl‐nitrosyl complexes with imidazole (Im) as monodentate ligand have been synthesized and characterized, starting from [NEt4][ReCl3(CO)2(NO)] and [ReCl(μ−Cl)(CO)2(NO)]2. Whereas the complexes [ReCl2(Im)(CO)2(NO)] and [ReCl(Im)2(CO)2(NO)]+ were achieved in high yields, the complex [Re(Im)3(CO)2(NO)]2+ with three imidazole ligands could only be isolated after complete removal of all halide ions (with AgBF4) in low yield. The synthesis of a corresponding 99mTc‐dicarbonyl‐nitrosyl complex with imidazole opens a new perspective for such compounds as potential radiopharmaceuticals and alternatives to the already established 99mTc‐tricarbonyl complexes.
