Abstract
A multimeric MRI contrast agent based on the closo-borane motif is reported. Twelve copies of a modified AAZTA chelate with an alkyne end group are appended on an azide-functionalized closo-borane motif using Cu(i) catalyzed click chemistry. The presence of two water molecules on the Gd-bound AAZTA chelate results in high relaxivity for the closomer in vitro/in vivo.Entities:
