The chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) efficiency for a series Eu3+-based tetraamide complexes bearing p-substituents on a single coordinating pendant arm is highly sensitive to water exchange rates. The CEST effect increases in the order Me < MeO < F approximately CO2tBu < CN < H. These results show that CEST contrast can be modulated by changes in electron density at a single ligating atom, and this forms the basis of creating imaging agents that respond to chemical oxidation and reduction.
对于一系列在单个配位侧链上带有对位取代基的基于Eu3+的四酰胺配合物,其化学交换饱和转移(CEST)效率对水交换速率高度敏感。CEST效应按以下顺序增加:甲基<甲氧基<氟≈叔丁氧羰基<氰基<氢。这些结果表明,CEST对比度可通过单个配位原子处电子密度的变化来调节,这构成了创建对化学氧化和还原有响应的成像剂的基础。
