Properties
Description
NOTA-functionalized xylan derivatives exemplify radiometal chelation on carbohydrate platforms, utilizing β-xylose hydroxyls for stable ligand attachment while maintaining macrocycle's metal coordination geometry.
Glycan Structure
Its glycan structure is a linear backbone of β-1,4-linked D-xylose residues with side-chain substitutions including α-linked arabinofuranose, glucuronic acid/4-O-methyl-glucuronic acid, and acetyl groups at O-2 or O-3 positions.
