Abstract

Abstract A method for the preparation of a technetium-99m complex having the formula [(L)299mTc(X)2](+)X(-), which comprises adding technetium-99m to a complex having the formula [(L)2M(X)2](+)X(-) and heating the mixture in the presence of a source of anion X(-), wherein each L is the same or different lipophilic ligand, each X is the same or different monovalent anionic ligand, and M is a non-toxic trivalent metal ion, is disclosed.
