“…[46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60] Tails that were introduced in the molecules of such new CAIs contained either moieties protonable at endocyclic nitrogen atoms (such as pyridine-or quinoline rings 30-35), or at amino groups belonging to amino acids and some of their derivatives (such as glycine, b-alanine, GABA, sarcosine, creatine, diethylenetriaminopentaacetic acid (dtpa), or glycyl-glycine moieties of types 36-42), as well as perfluoroalkyl/aryl moieties (which are not protonable at pH values in the neutral range, of types [43][44][45][46][47][48]. The water solubility of the first type of such derivatives is assured by formation of salts with hydrochloric, trifluoroacetic or triflic acid, or by formation of sodium salts, for the derivatives possessing carboxylic acid moieties (tails of types 34 or 41).…”
