RESUMO
An in vivo study was performed to evaluate the dependence of acute toxicity of high-radiopacity and luminescent octahedral cluster complexes of rhenium after intravenous injection on a composition of the cluster core. Changes in mouse body weight, water and food consumption, degree of intoxication, and morphological changes in the visceral organs were studied after intravenous injection of the following cluster complexes with various internal ligands (S, Se, or Te): Na4[{Re 6 Te 8 }(CN)6], Na4[{Re 6 Se 8 }(CN)6], and Na4[{Re 6 S 8 }(CN)6]. The Na4[{Re 6 S 8 } (CN)6] cluster complex was shown to be the safest for animals.

The synthesis and characterisation of a new, highly luminescent inorganic cluster complex, (Bu4N)2[Mo6I8(NO3)6], are described. The complex possesses labile nitrato ligands and is therefore a useful precursor for the design of new luminescent materials. To exemplify this, functionalised polystyrene beads have been utilised as "polymeric ligands" to immobilise the molybdenum cluster complex.
RESUMO
We studied the biodistribution of luminescent octahedral rhenium cluster complex K4[Re6S8(CN)6], a promising agent for photodynamic therapy. It was shown that rhenium complex [Re6S8(CN)6](4-)is mainly accumulated in the liver, the central organ of metabolism, and can be excreted by the kidneys. The cluster complex was also accumulated in the spleen in significant amount, which makes it a promising agent for creation of preparations for diagnostics and treatment of lymphoproliferative disorders. The mean lethal dose of the cluster complex was 0.38 g/kg.
