• Tumor cell uptake and selectivity of gadolinium(III)-phosphonium complexes: The role of delocalisation at the phosphonium centre 

  Busse, Madleen; Windsor, Madeline S. A.; Tefay, Alexander J.; Kardashinsky, Mingyue; Fenton, Jacob M.; Morrison, Daniel E.; Harris, Hugh H.; Rendina, Louis M. (Elsevier, 2017-12)

  The synthesis of a series of bifunctional Gd(III) complexes 1–3 covalently bound to arylphosphonium cations possessing a varying degree of delocalisation at the phosphonium centre is presented. The influence of the degree ...

• Synthesis and DNA-binding studies of a dinuclear gadolinium(III)-platinum(II) complex 

  Fenton, Jacob M.; Busse, Madleen; Rendina, Louis M. (CSIRO Publishing, 2015-01-27)

  The synthesis and characterisation of a new dinuclear GdIII–PtII complex (1·PF6) containing a functionalised macrocyclic 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7-triacetic acid derivative linked to a PtII-terpy (terpy = 2,2′ ...

• Carborane functionalization of the aromatic network in chemically-synthesized graphene 

  Kahlert, Jan U.; Rawal, Aditya; Hook, James M.; Rendina, Louis M.; Choucair, Mohammad (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-08-06)

  The conjugated aromatic system of graphene was used to trap the reactive, boron-rich 1,2-carborane cluster. Functionalization of the graphene surface was confirmed by solid-state MAS 11B NMR spectroscopy and quantified by ...

• Synthesis and stability studies of Ga-67 labeled phosphonium salts 

  Kardashinsky, Mingyue; Lengkeek, Nigel; Rendina, Louis M. (John Wiley & Sons, 2017-11-07)

  Delocalized lipophilic cations such as tri‐ and tetra‐arylphosphonium are able to diffuse across the mitochondrial membrane, which allows them to selectively accumulate in cells with a high transmembrane potential (ΔΨm). ...

• Syntheses and reductions of C-dimesitylboryl-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboranes 

  Kahlert, Jan; Böhling, Lena; Brockhinke, Andreas; Stammler, Hans-Georg; Neumann, Beate; Rendina, Louis M.; Low, Paul J.; Weber, Lothar; Fox, Mark A. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2015-04-24)

  Two C-dimesitylboryl-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaboranes, 1-(BMes2)-2-R-1,2-C2B10H10 (1, R = H, 2, R = Ph), were synthesised by lithiation of 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane and 1-phenyl-1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane, respectively, ...
