The synthesis of a new contrast agent based on a β-cyclodextrin scaffold and bearing a flexible lipophilic spacer arm on its secondary face is reported. Intermolecular host-guest inclusion complexes were known to undergo an enhancement of the contrast imaging. We extend this concept to intramolecular complexation. Inter- and intramolecular interactions are compared by NMR spectroscopy, circular dichroism and magnetic resonance imaging using hydrocinnamic acid and adamantane carboxylic acid as external guests. This positive variation of the observed relaxivity is a key element of new strategies aiming at developing smart molecular MRI probes.
FUNCTIONALLY MODIFIED POLYPEPTIDES AND RADIOBIOSYNTHESIS

Paragraph 0162; 0163; 0164, (2018/03/25)
Provided herein are compositions and methods for generating polypeptides using non-natural amino acids (nnAAs) and genetic machinery, wherein the modified polypeptides, such as therapeutic polypeptides, bind to albumin, such as serum albumin. Methods of substituting a non-natural amino acid in a first polypeptide to obtain a modified polypeptide, the nnAA in some instances comprising an albumin targeting group, are disclosed, as are methods for making populations of such modified polypeptides. A therapeutic polypeptide, interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RA) is exemplified using the disclosed methods.

Diaryliodonium salts are powerful and widely used arylating agents in organic chemistry. Here we report a scalable synthesis of densely functionalized diaryliodonium salts from aryl iodides under mild conditions. This two-step, one-pot process has remarkable functional group tolerance, is compatible with commonly employed acid-labile protective group strategies, avoids heavy metal and transition metal reagents, and provides a direct route to stable precursors to PET imaging agents.
