ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a new group of compounds (e.g., N,N"-bis(2,6-dimethylcarbaniloylmethylene diethylene triamino triacetic acid, N,N"-bis(pyridoxylamine)diethylene triamino triacetic acid) which can be used as metal chelating agents and can be complexed with paramagnetic metal atoms form new complexes with improved and unexpected stability which make them extremely useful as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging and other types of diagnostic imaging. The chelating agents and corresponding paramagnetic metal complexes are derivatives of diethylene triamino pentaacetic acid and triethylene tetraamino hexaacetic acid.
