Abstract

Abstract A composition of matter having the following general formula ##STR1## wherein L represents 2-hydroxy isobutyric acid. This composition of matter is useful in improving the reaction efficiency or yield when bonding rhenium to a chelating ligand preferably a polydentate sulfur, selenium, phosphorous or nitrogen ligand. This provides a method to bond radioactive rhenium to various chelating ligands for a radiopharmaceutical. Further, this also provides a method to bond a radioactive rhenium to a protein such as a monoclonal antibody. This in turn provides a method to provide beta emitting radiation to cancer cells.
