Study on radiolabeling of 1,2,3-triazole analogs with fac-[188Re（CO）3 （H2O）3 ]+ via click chemistry

Click chemistry was used to study on radiolabeling of 1,2,3-triazole analogs with fac-[188 Re(CO) 3 (H 2 O) 3]+ . CuSO 4 /L-sodium ascorbate was chosen as the catalyst system, three terminal alkynes were conjugated with two different azides respectively, and then the new prepared fac-[188 Re(CO) 3 (H 2 O) 3]+ was coordinated to the six triazoles. The results showed that the radiochemical yields (RCY) of the conjugation of fac-[188 Re(CO) 3]+ with six triazoles were over 90%, and the triazoles showed high stability in phosphate-buffered saline and new-born calf serum. The preliminary biological evaluation results showed that the new 188 Re-labeling method via click chemistry could have general application in labeling bioactive molecules in high radiochemical yield and high specific activity for further SPECT research.
