New Organometallic Technetium Complexes for Radiopharmaceutical Imaging

“…Accordingly, the main focus related to the labelling of biomolecules with 99m Tc is classical "Werner-type" chemistry. Coordination chemistry of technetium has recently been the focus of several reviews [10][11][12][13][14][15][16]. As is obvious from Scheme 1 the vast majority of complexes comprises the "[Tc=O] 3+ " core in which technetium is in the oxidation state +V.…”
