Preparation, 252Cf-plasma-desorption mass spectrometry and radiometal exchange of the Pb2+ and Bi3+ complexes of a hexalactam macrocycle.
A macrocyclic tricatechol hexalactam ligand readily forms complexes with Pb2+ and Bi3+ ions. Solid samples were isolated and characterized by 252Cf-plasma-desorption mass spectroscopy (252Cf-PDMS). Radioactive metal exchange studies employing 210Pb and 210Bi showed the compounds to be kinetically inert to exchange. The feasibility of using an available source of 203Pb, a potential imaging agent, with this class of compound was shown by synthesis of the labelled hexalactam complex.
