Abstract
Copper(I) bis(diphosphine) complexes provide an excellent basis for de velopment of short/medium-lived PET (positron emission tomography) ima ging and therapy agents containing copper radioisotopes, because of th eir extreme facility of synthesis and scope for derivatisation and bio conjugate formation.
