Chemistry of coordination compounds

The main scientific activity of the laboratory is aimed at the creation of molecular magnets, heterospin complexes and magnetically active compounds. We are engaged in the synthesis of organic paramagnets, coordination and multinucleated compounds with dia- and paramagnetic ligands, study their structure and magnetic properties, and develop approaches to control their magnetic properties by functionalizing paramagnetic ligands. Our goal is to create new materials with desired magnetic properties, as well as to study the relationship between structure and magnetic properties.

Laboratory No.135 is engaged in the synthesis of macrocyclic and acyclic chelators, as well as a comprehensive study of their complexing properties with respect to medical metal cations in order to create diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals based on them. For targeted delivery of the radionuclide complex to the affected area, bifunctional chelating agents and their conjugates with vector molecules such as peptides, antibodies and nanoparticles are being developed. Our research suggests an integrated approach to solving the task, starting from the design of the structure of chelators, the development of methods for their synthesis and ending with a complete analysis of their complexing characteristics. To do this, we use methods of HPLC, mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction analysis, quantum chemical calculations, potentiometric and spectrophotometric titration, as well as radionuclide labeling and stability analyses in vitro and in vivo. In the course of our research, we identify the advantages and disadvantages of new ligands and identify patterns that affect their ability to bind a particular metal cation. The results obtained make it possible to expand the range of possible new radiopharmaceuticals for the diagnosis and treatment of oncological diseases, which is currently extremely relevant.
