    Abstract:
    Three carbohydrate conjugated dipicolylamine chelators, 2-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl)amino)ethyl 1-deoxy-1-thio-beta-D-glucopyranoside (L(1)), 2-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl)amino)ethyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (L(2)), and 2-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl)amino)carboxamide-N-(2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucopyranose) (L(3)) were complexed to the [M(CO)(3)](+) core (M=Tc, Re) and the properties of the resulting complexes were investigated. Synthesis and characterization of the chelator 2-bis(2-pyridinylmethyl)amino)ethyl 1-deoxy-1-thio-beta-D-glucopyranoside (L(1)) and the corresponding Re complex are reported. All chelators were radiolabeled in high yield with [(99m)Tc(CO)(3)(H(2)O)(3)](+) (>98%) and [(186)Re(CO)(3)(H(2)O)(3)](+) (>80%). The chelators and Re-complexes were determined to not be substrates for the glucose metabolism enzyme hexokinase. However, the biodistribution of each of the (99m)Tc complexes demonstrated fast clearance from most background tissue, including >75% clearance of the activity in the kidneys and the liver within 2h post-injection.
