A series of related 3-hydroxypyridin-4-one hexadentate ligands have been synthesized. These chelators were found to possess a high affinity for iron(III), with a pFe value of about 30. As iron is a critical element to the survival of bacteria, these chelators were predicted to inhibit the growth of bacteria by disrupting bacterial iron absorption. Indeed, they were demonstrated to possess appreciable inhibitory activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and therefore, they have potential as antimicrobial agents. 1c and 1g were found to be particularly effective against Gram-negative species.

Two tripodal, hexadentate pyrone-based chelators have been prepared. These ligands form stable, soluble complexes with gadolinium(III). The complexes show aqueous stability comparable to that of [Gd(DTPA)]2- at pH 7.4. Evaluation by relaxometry shows that these complexes have two inner-sphere water molecules and a very fast water exchange rate. The solution behavior of these complexes suggests that they may be attractive as high relaxivity, next-generation magnetic resonance imaging contrast agents. Copyright
