Relaxivity Studies on a Gadolinium(III) Complex of a Macrocyclic DTPA Derivative

Abstract: The dinuclear Gd 3+ complex of the 30-membered cyclic DTPA derivative, cy(DTPA-en-DTPA-en), was studied by various NMR spectroscopic techniques in order to evaluate the parameters governing its relaxivity. The values obtained were compared with those for Gd(DTPA-BMA), which is an acyclic mononuclear analogue. Because of the increase in molecular weight the relaxivity r 1 =5.25 s −1 mM −1 (20 MHz, 37°C) is higher than that of the monomeric analogue (4.2 s −1 mM −1 ). The rotational correlation time at 298 K, τ … Show more

“…The temperature was calculated according to a previous calibration with ethylene glycol and methanol [ 28 ]. The samples were measured in 5-mm NMR tubes and were enriched with tert -butanol to allow for the bulk magnetic susceptibility correction [ 29 ]. The 1/ T 1 data were obtained by the inversion recovery method, while the 1/ T 2 data were measured by the Carr–Purcell–Meiboom–Gill spin-echo technique.…”

“…chemical shifts, T 1 and T 2 relaxation times) of solutions of the Gd-DO3AP BP complex (87-93 mM, pH = 6 and 7.5) were performed without spin and frequency lock in the temperature range 5-85 • C. 17 O NMR chemical shifts were corrected for the bulk magnetic susceptibility (BMS) contribution by measurement of the difference between chemical shifts of 1 H NMR signals of t-BuOH in the paramagnetic sample and in a sample of t-BuOH in pure water. 51 31 P{ 1 H} T 1 relaxation times of the Ho-DO3AP BP complex in D 2 O (110 mM, pH = 7.0) were measured without spin and frequency lock, with gain set to zero at 25 • C. Obtained data were not corrected for a diamagnetic contribution. 2 H T 1 relaxation times of aqueous solutions of partially deuterated La-DO3AP BP complexes (20-250 mM, pH = 7.5; and 50 mM, pH = 7.5 in the presence of 0.5 equiv.…”

“…Biocompatible Gd 3þ complexes are used as relaxation contrast agents [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] (CAs) in about 40% of medical examinations by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Paramagnetic CAs have a dominant effect on the T 1 relaxation of the protons of the neighboring water molecules, leading to an enhanced contrast of the tissues where they distribute.…”
