In 2003, the Nobel Assembly at the Karolinska Institute has awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology to Paul Lauterbur and Peter Mansfield for their seminal discoveries concerning the development of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), a non-invasive ...
The stability and water exchange dynamics of gadolinium (GdIII) complexes are critical characteristics that determine their effectiveness as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A new heteropodal GdIII chelate, [Gd-TREN-bis(6-Me-HOPO)-(TAM ...
Good things come in small packages: For its moderate molecular weight, the metallostar complex [Fe{Gd2L(H2O)4}3]4− (see picture; L is a bipyridine–poly(aminocarboxylate) derivative) displays exceptionally high proton relaxivity, which is explained in terms ...
Classical molecular dynamics simulations with a force field adapted to the family of Gd3+ polyaminocarboxylate complexes have been successfully applied on two macrocyclic ([Gd(DOTA)(H2O)]- and [Gd(DO3A)(H2O)2]) and two acyclic ([Gd(DTPA)(H2O)]2- and [Gd(EG ...
Recent neutron-diffraction studies on dilute solutions have shown that a change in coordination numbers from nine to eight water molecules in the first hydration sphere occurs when going from the light to the heavy lanthanide (III) ions. To acquire a deepe ...
The increasing use of contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for medical diagnosis is due to the ability, called relaxivity, of these paramagnetic compounds to accelerate the relaxation of the surrounding water proton spins. A new classical fo ...
tBu2PP:P(Me)tBu2 reacts with [Fe2(CO)9] to give [m-(1,2,3:4-h-tBu2PPPPtBu2){Fe(CO)3}{Fe(CO)4}] (I) and [trans-(tBu2MeP)2Fe(CO)3] (II). With [(h2-C8H14)2Fe(CO)3] in addn. to [m(1,2,3:4-h-tBu2PPPPtBu2){Fe(CO)2PMetBu2}{Fe(CO)4}] and II also [(m-PtBu2){m-P-Fe( ...
A set of Al2O3 samples were superplastically crept or stress-free annealed in identical conditions. Detailed quantitative microstructural evaluations of: grain sizes, shapes, orientations, coordination number and their distributions, were performed as well ...
