Beyond radiochemistry, very few examples exist of Zr complexes that are stable in  aqueous conditions. However, in non-aqueous environments, coordination complexes  of Zr are more extensive, though still dominated by the 4+ ion. The organometallic  compound zirconocene hydrochloride (Schwartz’s reagent, (C sic example of a covalent coordination complex containing Zr

89
Zr radiochemistry by synthesising new ligands with dierent donor atom sets and with 
higher denticity (from six to eight donors).
In 2013, Guérard etal. reported the synthesis and single-crystal X-ray structure of 
the eight-coordinate Zr(MeAHA)
 complex (Figure11.12)[54]. This work conrmed that

when steric constraints are not an issue (MeAHA ligands are very small), hydroxamate  ligands can transchelate oxalate ligands from Zr
4+
 ions in eight-coordinate complexes.  Further computational work by myself mapped out the thermodynamics of the MeAHA/ oxalate exchange reaction using simulated ‘acidic’ and ‘basic’ conditions[55]. Indeed, the  DFT studies found that the substitution reaction was thermodynamically feasible above  pH values of approximately 4.19 (corresponding to the second pKa value of oxalic acid).  The calculations also yielded a set of design criteria for the design and synthesis of new  ligands for 
89Zr4+
 complexation.
In the last few years, many groups around the world have been working actively on the 
design and synthesis of new bifunctional ligands for

 radiochemistry[11–20]. Struc­tures of a number of promising bifunctional chelates are shown in Figure11.13[56–68].  The reader should note that the list is by no means comprehensive but is rather a selec­tion of dierent bifunctional chelates that illustrate the current chemical scope of  ligands for Zr coordination. Almost without exception[64], the reports claim that the new  ligands, and in particular those that represent octadentate scaolds, exhibit “superior”  stability, imaging quality, and distribution in mice, which conrms that there is still room  for improvement in Zr coordination chemistry. In spite of the very interesting chemistry  that is emerging from exploring the expanded coordination space of Zr, the success of  DFO in the clinical setting, and the fact that desferrioxamine is readily available as an  approved GMP source, mean the jury is still out on whether any of these new chelates will  supersede the existing technology.
