We describe a practical multigram scale synthesis of the reactive immuno-PET linker-chelator GNE-605 from the commercially available starting material desferrioxamine B mesylate. A modified three-step synthetic procedure was developed that significantly reduces the amount of solvents and reagents required as compared to previous literature. Additionally, due to the unique handling challenges posed by this reactive intermediate, a liquid chromatography purification and lyophilization procedure was developed to allow for the first isolation of GNE-605 as a solid material.

Herein we report a new high-denticity chelator based on the iron siderophore desferrioxamine (DFO). Our new chelator-DFO2-is acyclic and was designed and synthesized with the purpose of improving the coordination chemistry and radiolabeling performance with radioactive zirconium-89. The radionuclide zirconium-89 ([89Zr]Zr4+) has found wide use for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging when it is coupled with proteins, antibodies, and nanoparticles. DFO2 has a potential coordination number of 12, which uniquely positions this chelator for binding large, high-valent, and oxophilic metal ions. Following synthesis of the DFO2 chelator and the [natZr]Zr-(DFO2) complex we performed density functional theory calculations to study its coordination sphere, followed by zirconium-89 radiolabeling experiments for comparisons with the "gold standard"chelator DFO. DFO (CN 6) can coordinate with zirconium in a hexadentate fashion, leaving two open coordination sites where water is thought to coordinate (total CN 8). DFO2 (potential CN 12, dodecadentate) can saturate the coordination sphere of zirconium with four hydroxamate groups (CN 8), with no room left for water to directly coordinate, and only binds a single atom of zirconium per chelate. Following quantitative radiolabeling with zirconium-89, the preformed [89Zr]Zr-(DFO) and [89Zr]Zr-(DFO2) radiometal-chelate complexes were subjected to a battery of in vitro stability challenges, including human blood serum, apo-transferrin, serum albumin, iron, hydroxyapatite, and EDTA. One objective of these stability challenges was to determine if the increased denticity of DFO2 over that of DFO imparted improved complex stability, and another was to determine which of these assays is most relevant to perform with future chelators. In all of the assays DFO2 showed superior stability with zirconium-89, except for the iron challenge, where both DFO2 and DFO were identical. Substantial differences in stability were observed for human blood serum using a precipitation method of analysis, apo-transferrin, hydroxyapatite, and EDTA challenges. These results suggest that DFO2 is a promising next-generation scaffold for zirconium-89 chelators and holds promise for radiochemistry with even larger radionuclides, which we anticipate will expand the utility of DFO2 into theranostic applications.
Synthesis and solution properties of deferoxamine amides

The poor membrane permeability and oral bioavailability of the iron chelating agent deferoxamine (DFO) mesylate result from the low octanol/water partition coefficient and high aqueous solubility. With the ultimate aim to improve biomembrane permeability while retaining the iron-binding ability of DFO, a series of more lipophilic amides were prepared by reacting the terminal primary amino group with fatty and aromatic acid chlorides or anhydrides. Octanol/water partition coefficients and equilibrium solubilities of these analogs in solvents, chosen to delineate physicochemical interactions, were determined as a function of temperature. Solid-state properties were evaluated by calorimetry. All DFO amide derivatives had higher melting points, indicating that derivatives formed strong intermolecular interactions in the solid phase. Formamidation of the primary amine of deferoxamine resulted in a 200-fold increase in the octanol/water partition coefficient and reduced aqueous solubility at least 2000-fold compared with the parent molecule. The partition coefficient increased and aqueous solubility decreased 2-fold with the addition of each methylene group in the homologous series of aliphatic amides. Solubilities of the derivatives in water-saturated octanol and hexane showed irregular profiles as a function of increasing aliphatic chain length that were attributed to intermolecular packing in the solid state. The temperature dependence of the partition coefficients was interpreted to indicate that interfacial transfer of the deferoxamine amides was, in part, affected by an apparent diminished ability to form energetically favorable interactions in the water-saturated organic phase.
