abstract
Distinct differences in in vivo stability of the two diastereomeric C-Functionalized CyDTPA chelating agents, (CHX-A DTPA and CHX-B DTPA, both racemates), as recently reported prompted further investigation as to why differences in configuration produced striking effects on the in vivo stability of their yttrium complexes. To this end, the four individual component stereoisomers of CHX-A and CHX-B were synthesized and ability to bind yttrium was investigated both in vitro and in vivo.
