A fluorinated, thulium(iii) complex (Tm-PFZ-1) serves as an off-on F magnetic resonance probe for Zn(ii). Rapid exchange among different conformations combined with paramagnetic relaxation and chemical shift effects of Tm(iii) effectively eliminate the F NMR/MRI signal in Tm-PFZ-1. Chelation of Zn(ii) induces increased structural rigidity and reduces exchange rate, affording a robust F NMR/MRI signal. Tm-PFZ-1 represents a first-in-class paramagnetic F MR agent that exploits a novel sensing mechanism for Zn(ii) and is the first F MR-based scaffold to provide an "off-on" response to Zn(ii) in aqueous solution.
一种氟化的铥(III)配合物(Tm-PFZ-1)可用作用于 Zn(II)的开-关 F 磁共振探针。不同构象之间的快速交换以及铥(III)的顺磁弛豫和化学位移效应有效地消除了 Tm-PFZ-1 中的 F NMR/MRI 信号。Zn(II)的螯合作用会增加结构刚性并降低交换速率,从而提供强的 F NMR/MRI 信号。Tm-PFZ-1 代表了一类新型的顺磁 F 磁共振造影剂,它利用了一种新颖的 Zn(II)传感机制,并且是第一个基于 F 磁共振的支架,在水溶液中对 Zn(II)产生“开-关”响应。
