Design, synthesis and evaluation of MRI ligands for in vivo imaging of protease activity

This thesis details the design and synthesis of a small library of 19F MRI MMP probes containing an MMP substrate bound to a paramagnetic agent (gadolinium contrast agent) with a fluorine containing group at the opposite terminus. The largest obstacle in the synthesis of the probe was the conjugatio...
