Gadolinium(III)-DOTA Complex Functionalized with BODIPY as a Potential Bimodal Contrast Agent for MRI and Optical Imaging
The synthesis and characterization of a novel gadolinium(III) DOTA complex functionalized with a boron-dipyrromethene derivative (BODIPY) is described. The assembly of the complex relies on azide diazotransfer chemistry in a copper tube flow reactor. The azide thus formed is coupled directly with an...
