Abstract:The library of new smart contrast agents based on Gd3+, Eu3+, and Tb3+ used as biomarkers is in continuous development due to its applications in diagnostic imaging. The search for safer and more efficient contrast agents has focused on the design of compounds that exhibit high relaxivity. Herein, we present alternative synthetic strategies for the development of theoretically high-relaxivity synthons based on lanthanides using the Solomon–Bloembergen–Morgan equations through click chemistry and direct additio… Show more
