Alzheimer's disease (AD) is associated with the presence of amyloid plaques in the brain mainly comprised of aggregated forms of amyloid-β (Aβ). Molecules radiolabeled with technetium-99m that cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and selectively bind to Aβ plaques have the potential to assist in the diagnosis of AD using single-photon emission computed tomography imaging. In this work, three new tetradentate ligands of pyridyl, amide, amine and thiol donors, featuring a styrylpyridyl group that is known to interact with amyloid plaques, were prepared. The new ligands formed charge-neutral and lipophilic complexes with the [Tc═O] |
