Abstract DATA (6-Amino-1,4-diazapine-triacetate) and AAZTA (6-Amino-1,4-diazapine-tetracetate) chelators represent a novel approach representing hybrid-chelates: possessing significant cyclic and acyclic character. It is believed that flexibility of the acyclic part facilitates rapid complexation, whilst the preorganized cyclic part minimizes the energy barrier to complexation and inhibits decomplexation processes. So far, these chelators have been used exclusively with 44Sc and 68Ga only. Recent results with natCu predict high stabilities for Cu-AAZTA, yet no radioactive labeling of AAZTA or DATA with 64Cu or any additional radioactive isotope has been reported. We present the one pot synt…
