Participants

Reaction Steps

DBU (820 μL; 5.5 mmol) was added to a suspension of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid tris(phenylmethyl)ester (prepared according to Step E3 of Example 17) (3.71 g; 5.5 mmol) in toluene (350 mL) obtaining a clear solution, then 2-bromo-N,N-dioctadecylacetamide (prepared according to Example 5, Step A) (3.9 g; 6.05 mmol) dissolved in toluene (50 mL) was added dropwise. After 2 h the reaction mixture was filtered and the solvent was evaporated. The crude was suspended in CH3CN (50 mL) and the insoluble was filtered off with a paper filter. The solution was evaporated obtaining the desired product (4.63 g; 3.74 mmol). Yield 68%. The 13C-NMR, MS and IR spectra were consistent with the structure.
