Acyclic chelating ligands for radiometals

This thesis presents studies on a class of acyclic (open chain) chelating ligands based on the picolinic acid moiety. Our recent reports of the promising hexadentate chelator H₂dedpa and octadentate analogue H₄octapa for Ga(III) and In(III)/Lu(III) complexation, respectively, have spurred our intere...
