A stable Re complex containing an imidazopyridine ligand with a high affinity for TSPO has been synthesized as a model for new 99mTc or 188/186Re-based radiopharmaceuticals to be used in SPECT diagnosis or in therapy, respectively. The new complex fac- [ReBr(CO)3(TZ6)], structurally characterized, showed high affinity (nanomolar concentration) for the target protein.

Abstract
A stable Re complex containing an imidazopyridine ligand with a high affinity for TSPO has been synthesized as a model for new 99mTc or 188/186Re-based radiopharmaceuticals to be used in SPECT diagnosis or in therapy, respectively. The new complex fac- [ReBr(CO)3(TZ6)], structurally characterized, showed high affinity (nanomolar concentration) for the target protein.File in questo prodotto:
