[Re(phen(phSO3)2)(CO)3(im)]-錯合物已由本實驗室自備出，此錯合物之π→π*吸收位於289nm，metal-to-ligand harge-tansfer(MLCT)的吸收位於374nm，3MLCT發光位於590nm，在水溶液中的lifetime為180ns，氧化電位為+1.23V vs SCE，還原電位為-1.31V vs SCE，由淬息反應得到E00 = 2.37eV。
[Re(phen(phSO3)2)(CO)3(L')]-和[Re(phen(CO)3(L')]+（L'為imidazole、1,3-diimidazole-yl-propane、和1,4-diimidazole-yl-butane）與AcMp8的反應，發現最大吸收峰會由396nm位移至404nm，binding constant為104M-1，金屬確寶以一端的imidazole接在heme上的鐵，為六配位的電子組態。金屬之間的電了轉移非常快，無法測其lifetime，由發光光譜確寶可以觀察到金屬之激發態會由於電子傳遞到AcMp8而被淬息。[Re(phen(phSO3)2)(CO)3(im)]-和[Re(phen(CO)3(im)]+因立體障礙太大而無法反應。
將cytochrome c與[Re(phen(phSO3H)2)(CO)3(triflate)]的反應中發現金屬可能具有將蛋白質切成碎片的能力，約以20個胺基酸為單位，可以進一步探討其作為photoprotease的可能。

[Re(phen(phSO3)2)(CO)3(im)]-complex have been prepared.The absorption spectrum of the complex exhibits π→π*transition at the 298 nm and the metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) at the 374 nm.The broad emission profile centered at 590 nm is consist of a 3MLCT excited-state.The lifetime of this state is 180 ns.The reduction and oxidation potentials of this complex are-1.31 and +1.23V vs SCE respectively.Systematic quenching reaction results 2.37 eV for the 3MLCT excited state potential.
[Re(LL)(CO)3(L')]-complexes, (LL:phenathroline (phen),bathophenathroline disulfonic acid (phen(phSO3)2); L':imidazole, 1,3-diimidazole-yl-propane (3C(im)2),1,4-diimidazole-yl-butane (4C(im)2),binding relatively tighy with iron in AcMP8 through imidazole bridge.The binding constant is on the order of 104M-1.Upon binding ,the iron changes to low spin state and results the soret band of AcMP8 shifts from 396 nm to 404nm.
[Re(phen(phSO3H)2)(CO)3(triflate)] exhibits hydrolysis ability while bound to cytochrome c.This potential protease usage will be for the investigated.
