- Cherenkov Radiation-Mediated In Situ Excitation of Discrete Luminescent Lanthanide Complexes
-
Lanthanide luminescence, while ideal for in vivo applications owing to sharp emission bands within the optical window, requires high-intensity, short-wavelength excitation of small organic “antenna” chromophores in the vicinity of the lanthanide complex to access excited f-orbital states through intersystem crossing. Herein, we explored Cherenkov radiation of the radioisotopes 18F and 89Zr as an in situ source of antenna excitation. The effective inter- and intramolecular excitation of the terbium(III) complexes of a macrocylic polyaminocarboxylate ligand (hydration number (q)=0, quantum yield (φ)=47 %) as well as its analogue functionalized to append an intramolecular Cherenkov excitation source (q=0.07, φ=63 %) was achieved. Using conventional small-animal fluorescence imaging equipment, we have determined a detection limit of 2.5 nmol of Tb(III) complex in presence of 10 μCi of 18F or 89Zr. Our system is the first demonstration of the optical imaging of discrete luminescent lanthanide complexes without external short-wave excitation.

- Including and Declaring Structural Fluctuations in the Study of Lanthanide(III) Coordination Chemistry in Solution
-
The physicochemical properties of lanthanide(III) ions are directly linked to the structure of the surrounding ligands. Rapid ligand exchange prohibits direct structure-property relationships from being formed for simple complexes in solution because the property measured will be an average over several structures. For kinetically inert lanthanide(III) complexes, the simpler speciation may alleviate the problem, yet the archetypical complexes formed by ligands derived from cyclen are known to have at least four different forms in solution - each with a variation in the crystal field that gives rise to significantly different properties. Slow interchange between forms has been engineered, so that a single complex geometry can be studied, but fast or intermediate interchange between forms is much more commonly observed. The rapid structural fluctuation can report on the changing chemical environment and can be disregarded if a specific property of a lanthanide(III) complex is exploited in an application. However, if we are to understand the chemistry of the lanthanide(III) ions in solution, we must include the structural fluctuation that takes place even in kinetically inert lanthanide(III) complexes in our studies. Here, we have scrutinized the processes that determine the speciation of lanthanide(III) complexes of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetate (DOTA)-like ligands, in particular the processes that enable exchange between forms that have different physicochemical properties, exemplified by the exchange between the diastereomeric capped square-antiprismatic (cSAP) and capped twisted-square-antiprismatic (cTSAP) forms of DOTA-like lanthanide(III) complexes. In the characterization of a kinetically inert f-element complex, understanding the structural fluctuation in the system is critical because a single observed property can arise from a weighted average, from all forms present, or from a single form with a dominating contribution. Further, the experimental condition will influence both the distribution of lanthanide(III) species in solution and the rates of the processes that change the coordination sphere of the lanthanide(III) ions. This is highlighted using data from a series of cyclen-derived ligands with different pendant arms and different denticity. The data were obtained in experiments that take place on different time scales to show that the rate of the process that results in a structural change must be considered against the time of the experiment. We conclude that the structural fluctuations must be taken into account and that they cannot be predicted from the ligand structure. Thus, an estimate of the exchange rates between forms, the relative concentrations of the specific forms, and the effect of the specific structure of each form of the complex must be included in the description of the solution properties of f-element chelates.

- General Approach to Direct Measurement of the Hydration State of Coordination Complexes in the Gas Phase: Variable Temperature Mass Spectrometry
-
The formation of ternary aqua complexes of metal-based diagnostics and therapeutics is closely correlated to their in vivo efficacy but approaches to quantify the presence of coordinated water ligands are limited. We introduce a general and high-throughput method for characterizing the hydration state of para- and diamagnetic coordination complexes in the gas phase based on variable-temperature ion trap tandem mass spectrometry. Ternary aqua complexes are directly observed in the mass spectrum and quantified as a function of ion trap temperature. We recover expected periodic trends for hydration across the lanthanides and distinguish complexes with several inner-sphere water ligands by inspection of temperature-dependent speciation curves. We derive gas-phase thermodynamic parameters for discernible inner- and second-sphere hydration events, and discuss their application to predict solution-phase behavior. The differences in temperature at which water binds in the inner and outer spheres arise primarily from entropic effects. The broad applicability of this method allows us to estimate the hydration states of Ga, Sc, and Zr complexes under active preclinical and clinical study with as-yet undetermined hydration number. Variable-temperature mass spectrometry emerges as a general tool to characterize and quantitate trends in inner-sphere hydration across the periodic table.

- Novel polyazamacrocyclic receptor decorated core-shell superparamagnetic microspheres for selective binding and magnetic enrichment of palladium: Synthesis, adsorptive behavior and coordination mechanism
-
The development of economical and green technologies for the effective recovery of palladium has attracted worldwide attention in recent years. Magnetic separation involving the use of functional magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with superparamagnetic characteristics holds great promise in this respect. This study presents a novel class of core-shell structured superparamagnetic microspheres decorated with polyazamacrocyclic receptors, which show a highly-selective binding to Pd(ii) in HNO3 media. The superparamagnetic microspheres possess a high saturation magnetization (53.8 emu g-1) and high adsorption capacity (qmax ≈ 105.3 μmol g-1), affording efficient enrichment and fast separation (within 13 seconds) of palladium under an applied magnetic field. Adsorptive behavior was fully investigated combined with the corresponding theoretical analysis by using kinetic equations and Langmuir/Freundlich isotherm models. Moreover, the coordination mechanism of the polyazamacrocyclic receptors to Pd(ii) was carefully examined based on high resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and FT-IR spectrophotometry. A suggested mechanism involving the synergistic effect of the cyclic amines and carboxyl arms of the polyazamacrocyclic receptors was proposed to describe the coordination manner, while explaining the selectivity to Pd(ii) in HNO3 solutions. From a practical perspective, the Pd(ii)-enriched microspheres could be readily regenerated for cycle use. We conclude that this kind of polyazamacrocyclic receptor decorated superparamagnetic microsphere is of potential use for the effective recovery of Pd(ii) as well as other precious metals.

- DOTA-tris(OPp ester) as a bifunctional prochelator for the preparation of DOTA-peptide conjugates
-
Peptides containing the chelator DOTA have gained importance for molecular imaging and therapy with radionuclides. However, all synthons described for the convergent solid phase synthesis of DOTA-peptide conjugates show windows of stability that are too narrow to allow a clean and convergent deprotection process. The synthesis of the new prochelator DOTA-tris(OPp ester) starting from cyclen is reported. Using this prochelator for the synthesis of several DOTA peptide conjugates revealed that its cleavage - in contrast to the cleavage of DOTA-tris(tBu ester) conjugates - does not require an extended deprotection time, and therefore results in clean and homogenous products.

- Preparation and animal biodistribution of 166Ho labeled DOTA for possible use in intravascular radiation therapy (IVRT)
-
Owing to its favorable decay characteristics (T1/2 = 27 h, Eβ(max) = 1.85 MeV, Eγ = 81 keV) and its availability with a specific activity of 3.74.4GBq/mg from a moderate flux reactor, 166Ho can be considered as a potential radionuclide for intravascular radiation therapy (IVRT) using liquid-filled balloons. In the present work, studies on the use of 166Ho labeled 1,4,7,10- tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) as a possible agent for IVRT for the prevention of restenosis has been initiated. 166Ho was obtained by irradiating natural Ho2O3 powder and DOTA was synthesized by a multistep procedure. The optimum protocol of radiolabeling of DOTA with 166Ho was achieved by varying different reaction parameters. The complex was found to retain its stability for 7 days at room temperature. Bioevaluation studies carried out in Wistar rats showed that >95% of the injected activity was excreted within 3 h p.i. with almost no retention in any major organ. Both radiochemical and biological studies showed that 166Ho labeled DOTA can be further explored as a potential agent for IVRT. Copyright

- Manganese (II) chelate manufacture
-
The process of this invention for preparing Mn(II) chelate comprises forming the Mn(II) chelate by mixing manganese(II) oxide (insoluble) with an aqueous suspension comprising a molar equivalent or molar excess of the insoluble protonated chelating compound at a temperature of from 20° to 50° C. When the reaction is carried out with a protonated chelating agent in the absence of base, a precipitate of the protonated Mn(II) chelate is formed. A low osmolarity Mn(II) chelate solution can be formed from the precipitates by dissolving them in an aqueous solution of base. When the initial chelate forming reaction is carried out in a solution containing a molar equivalent or excess of sodium hydroxide, a low osmolarity solution of the Mn(II) chelate is directly formed with most chelating agents. Preferred chelating compounds for this process include DPDP, DTPA, DCTA, EDTP, DOTA, DOXA, DO3A and EDTA. The Mn(II) chelate precipitates and low osmolarity solutions formed by the above processes are also aspects of this invention.
