N1 - The work was supported by MIUR (PRIN 2008-prot. 20087K9A2J). The authors thank the Forschungszentrum Julich for provision of beam time. SANS experiments were supported by the European Commission, NMI3 contract RII3-CT-2003-505925. The authors thank Prof. Viveka Alfredsson for critical assessment of the results obtained through Cryo-TEM images.
AB - An amphiphilic ruthenium-based molecule (DOPURu) with potential antineoplastic activity has been synthesized, and its aggregation behavior in the presence of phospholipids has been investigated. A very rich variety of aggregates has been found, spanning from vesicles to cubic bicontinuous phases. Cubosomes here presented represent one of the first systems with potential use for medical therapy.
