Atomfair Tri-tert-butyl 1,4,7,10-Tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetate DOTA-tri(t-butyl ester) C28H52N4O8 CAS 137076-54-1

Description

Tri-tert-butyl 1,4,7,10-Tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetate (CAS No. 137076-54-1) is a highly specialized macrocyclic chelating agent with the molecular formula C₂₈H₅₂N₄O₈. This compound, also known as DOTA-tri(t-butyl ester), features a 12-membered tetraazacyclododecane ring system functionalized with three tert-butyl acetate groups and one free carboxylic acid. Its unique structure makes it an essential intermediate for synthesizing DOTA-based ligands, widely used in radiopharmaceuticals, MRI contrast agents, and metal ion coordination chemistry. The tert-butyl ester groups provide excellent solubility in organic solvents and facilitate selective deprotection for further functionalization. With a purity level suitable for research and diagnostic applications, this product is ideal for scientists working in medicinal chemistry, nuclear medicine, and advanced material sciences. Proper storage at -20°C is recommended to ensure long-term stability.

Application

Tri-tert-butyl 1,4,7,10-Tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetate is primarily used as a precursor for synthesizing DOTA (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid) derivatives, which are critical in developing radiometal chelators for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. It serves as a key building block for creating contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and radiolabeling compounds for positron emission tomography (PET). Researchers also utilize this compound to study metal ion binding kinetics and stability constants in coordination chemistry. Its tert-butyl ester protection allows for controlled deprotection and conjugation to biomolecules, enabling targeted imaging and therapy.
