Abstract
The spectroscopic properties of two luminescent Re(i) tricarbonyl complexes conjugated with two cell-penetrating peptides were examined. Fluorescence experiments and IR quantification in membrane models and in cells showed unexpectedly strong luminescence enhancement for one of the complexes in a lipid environment.
