Zusammenfassung: | The leakage of gadolinium ions (Gd3+) from commercial Gd3+-based contrast agents (GBCAs) in patients is currently the major safety concern in clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, and the lack of task-specific GBCAs limits its usage in the early detection of disease and imaging of specific biological regions. Herein, ultrastable GBCAs were constructed via decorating chiral Gd-DOTA with a phenylic analogue to one of the pendent arms, and the stability constant was determined as high as 27.08, accompanied by negligible decomplexation in 1 M of HCl over 2 years. A hepatic-specific chiral Gd-DOTA was screened out as a potential alternative to commercial Gd-EOB-DTPA, while combination with functional molecules favored chiral Gd-DOTA as tumor targeting probes. Therefore, the novel chiral Gd-DOTA is believed to be an ideal platform for designing the next generation of GBCAs for various clinical purposes due to its outstanding inert nature. |
