Aa. Vitale et al., PREPARATION AND BIOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF TECHNETIUM-99M-PHENYLETHYLAMINE COMPLEXES, Journal of labelled compounds & radiopharmaceuticals, 36(6), 1995, pp. 509-519
Biological and chemical characteristics of Tc-99m-phenethylamines comp
lexes are presented. 2-(4,5-Dimethoxy-2-nitrophenyl)ethylamine, 2-(3,4
-dimethoxyphenyl)ethylamine and 2-(2-amino-4,5-dimethoxyphenyl)ethylam
ine were used as ligands. A preliminary evaluation of these Tc-99m-com
plexes as dopamine receptor radioligands was also performed. Net charg
es at each atom were also calculated by a semiempirical ZINDO/1 method
for comparison of free ligands' parameters with those of the respecti
ve technetium-complexes.
