As a basic structure of a bifunctional radiopharmaceutical (BR), dithiosemicarbazone (DTS) enables the formation of a small conjugated chelating ring with divalent metals (Cu2+, Zn2+, Ni2+), yielding stable and compact complexes. In the development of a neutral and compact monomeric DTS complex of technetium (99mTc), a DTS containing ligand, kethoxal-bis(thiosemicarbazone) (KTS) was selected. A well known monomeric Cu-KTS complex (or 64Cu-KTS) is taken as a model compound, and in vitro (TLC, EP, HPLC) and in vivo (mice biodistribution) studies were compared. Using the stannous chloride method, under conditions to avoid the hydrolytic polynucleation of technetium, a good yield of 99mTc-KTS with characteristics resembling the non-charged, compact and stable Cu-KTS is obtained, in in vitro as well as in vivo studies. The importance of DTS as the constituent of a BR is discussed.
作为双功能放射性药物(BR)的基本结构,二硫代氨基脲(DTS)能够与二价金属(Cu2+、Zn2+、Ni2+)形成一个小的共轭螯合环,生成稳定且紧密的配合物。在开发一种中性且紧密的锝(99mTc)单体DTS配合物时,选择了一种含DTS的配体,乙二醛双(硫代氨基脲)(KTS)。一种著名的单体Cu-KTS配合物(或64Cu-KTS)被用作模型化合物,并对其体外(薄层色谱法、电泳法、高效液相色谱法)和体内(小鼠生物分布)研究进行了比较。采用氯化亚锡法,在避免锝水解多核化的条件下,无论是体外研究还是体内研究,都能获得产率良好的99mTc-KTS,其特性类似于不带电荷、紧密且稳定的Cu-KTS。文中讨论了DTS作为BR组成部分的重要性。
