Synthesis of Organosilicon Ligands for Europium (III) and Gadolinium (III) as Potential Imaging Agents
The relaxivity of MRI contrast agents can be increased by increasing the size of the contrast agent and by increasing concentration of the bound gadolinium. Large multi-site ligands able to coordinate several metal centres show increased relaxivity as a result. In this paper, an “aza-type Michael” r...
