Abstract
In this work a new coupling reagent, N-[2-(maleimido)ethyl]-3-(trimethylstannyl)benzamide, for radiohalogenation has been synthesized and characterized. The reagent is intended to either be attached to reduced disulfide bridges of proteins (making the halogenation site-specific) or to free terminal cysteine groups on peptides. The new reagent was also shown to be easily halogenated with inactive bromine and iodine as well as (125)I and (211)At, indicating potential use within targeted radiotherapy.
