    Abstract: Metal-chelating compositions having the structure (1a) wherein: R1, R2, R3, and R4 are independently selected from the following groups: (i) hydrogen atom, (ii) hydrocarbon groups (R) containing 1-12 carbon atoms; (iii) halogen atoms; (iv) —P(R5)(═O)OH groups; (v) —C(═O)OH groups; (vi) —S(═O)2OH groups; and (vii) —OH groups, wherein R5 is selected from hydrocarbon groups (R) and —OH; R1 and R2 may optionally interconnect to form Ring A fused to the ring on which R1 and R2 are present; R3 and R4 may optionally interconnect to form Ring B fused to the ring on which R3 and R4 are present; wherein Ring A and Ring B are optionally and independently substituted with one or more of groups (ii)-(vii). Methods of using the above-described compositions for chelating metal ions having an atomic number of at least 56 (e.g., Ba or Ra) are also described.

    Abstract: A composition comprising the following structure: (formula I) wherein Re represents a rhenium ion having a +1 charge; (formula II) represents an uncharged bidentate bicyclic ligand bonded to the rhenium (Re) by two ring nitrogen (N) atoms; and L is a neutral ligand independently selected from CO and neutral phosphine molecules, wherein at least one of the L groups is a CO molecule; and X− represents a non-coordinating monovalent anion; wherein (formula II) is unsubstituted or substituted on any of its two rings, and said neutral phosphine molecule may or may not contain a phosphorus atom as a ring phosphorus atom; provided that, if (formula II) is unsubstituted, then one or two of said L groups are selected from said neutral phosphine molecules, with the provision that at least one of the neutral phosphine molecules has a phosphorus atom as a ring phosphorus atom. Methods for treating cancer by administering the above complex are also disclosed.
