Design of Gd(III)-Based Magnetic Resonance Imaging Contrast Agents: Static and Transient Zero-Field Splitting Contributions to the Electronic Relaxation and Their Impact on Relaxivity

André Merbach, Lothar Helm, Alain Borel, Loïck Moriggi

A multiple-frequency (9.4-325 GHz) and variable-temperature (276-320 K) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) study on low molecular weight gadolinium(III) complexes for potential use as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents has been performed. ...

A Novel Strategy for the Design of 8-Hydroxyquinolinate- Based Lanthanide Bioprobes That Emit in the Near Infrared Range

Jean-Claude Bünzli, Caroline Vandevyver

A new polydentate tripodal ligand T2soxMe was synthesized to take advantage of the chelating effect of tridentate 8- hydroxyquinolinate subunits. Potentiometric and spectrophotometric titrations reveal seven pKa values of between 3.7 and 10.2. In water, th ...

Relaxivity of Gd-based contrast agents on X nuclei with long intrinsic relaxation times in aqueous solutions

Rolf Gruetter, Ruud van Heeswijk, Sabrina Laus

The relaxivity of commercially available gadolinium (Gd)-based contrast agents was studied for X-nuclei resonances with long intrinsic relaxation times ranging from 6 s to several hundred seconds. Omniscan in pure 13C formic acid had a relaxivity of 2.9 mM ...

Durability of aminosilane-silica hybrid gas-barrier coatings on polymers

Yves Leterrier, Bandeep Singh, Gil Rochat

Aminosilane solutions with pH equal to 8 and to 11 were applied and cured on SiO2 coated poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films. The permeability of the silane-silica hybrid coating on PET was reduced twofold compared to that of the SiO2/PET film, at sol ...

A Starburst-Shaped Heterometallic Compound Incorporating Six Densely Packed Gd3+ Ions

André Merbach, Alain Borel, Eva Jakab Toth, Joao Bruno Livramento Fig.

The heterotritopic ligand [bpy(DTTA)2]8- has two diethylenediamine-tetraacetate units for selective lanthanide(III) coordination and one bipyridine function for selective FeII coordination. In aqueous solution and in the presence of these metals, the ligan ...
