title: Amidino ligands obtained from the coupling of 1-methylcytosine and nitrile: a new method to incorporate biomolecules into luminescent Re(CO)3 complexes.
abstract: The formation of an amidino chelating ligand from the coupling reaction of 1-methylcytosine and nitrile is a new method herein reported for the incorporation of biologically relevant substrates into rhenium(i) tricarbonyl complexes. The reactions are carried out thermally or are microwave assisted.
