    In this project, we replace the aromatic substituent in known galectin inhibitors based on LacNAc, phenylthiogalactoside and thiodigalactoside scaffolds with arene-containing organometallic structures –ferrocenes1 and ruthenium arenes2 with known antitumor properties. This results in hybrid molecules that can act as both galectin inhibitors and cytotoxic and/or antimetastatic agents. We have confirmed that both ferrocenes and ruthenium arene moieties are viable bioisosteres for planar arenes in the context of glycomimetic galectin inhibitors. Prepared organometallic inhibitors have a comparable or even better binding affinity to galectins than their nonmetallic counterparts with several compounds selective to either Gal-1 orGal-3. Prepared organometallic galectin inhibitors are nontoxic to both cancer and noncancerous cell lines, however selected ferrocene complexes show a significant in vitro antimigratory effect against invasive cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 and SK-OV-3.
