Abstract

Abstract The composition and methodology associated with the formulation of a halogenated phosphonic acid labeled in the ring moiety are disclosed having the formula: <IMAGE> wherein R1 is aryl and is labeled with a halogen and R2 is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, amino, benzyl, hydroxyl-CH2PO3H -CH2CH2PO3H2 and is labeled with halogen. The compositions are especially useful for scanning investigations of in vivo deposits of calcium.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 78 words
A composition of matter comprising a radiolabeled, with a radioisotope, diphosphonic acid, said diphosphonic acid represented by the formula: ##STR5## wherein: R 1 is aryl and is labeled with a halogen and R 2 is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, amine, benzyl, hydroxyl, --CH 2 PO 3 H --CH 2 CH 2 PO 3 H 2 and is labeled with halogen, said radiolabel selected from the group consisting of a radioactive halogen and both a radioactive halogen and a technetium-99m.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 78 words
A composition of matter comprising a radiolabeled, with a radioisotope, diphosphonic acid, said diphosphonic acid represented by the formula: ##STR5## wherein: R 1 is aryl and is labeled with a halogen and R 2 is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl, amine, benzyl, hydroxyl, --CH 2 PO 3 H --CH 2 CH 2 PO 3 H 2 and is labeled with halogen, said radiolabel selected from the group consisting of a radioactive halogen and both a radioactive halogen and a technetium-99m.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein said diphosphonic acid is phenyl methylene hydroxy diphosphonic acid.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 16 words
The composition of claim 1 wherein the diphosphonic acid is methylene hydroxyphenyl methylene hydroxy diphosphonic acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 21 words
The composition of any one of claims 1, 2 or 3 wherein said radiolabel is both a radioactive halogen and technetium-99m.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 16 words
The composition of any one of claims 1, 2 or 3 wherein said radiolabel is iodine-123.
