    Abstract:
    A concise synthesis of the bifunctional chelating agent 1,4,7,10-tetraaza-N-(1-carboxy-3-(4-nitrophenyl)propyl)-N',N'',N'' '-tris(acetic acid)cyclododecane (PA-DOTA) is reported. Difficulties involving the production of partially alkylated products and their removal have been addressed and obviated. After the pure nitro form of PA-DOTA was obtained, conversion to the isothiocyanato form PA-DOTA (1, conjugation to HuCC49 and HuCC49deltaCH2 monoclonal antibodies was achieved. Subsequent radiolabeling with 177Lu was performed, demonstrating a useful bifunctional chelating agent suitable for clinical radioimmunotherapy applications.
