General chemical structures and optimized DFT
structures for (I) the Zr-HOPO complex; (II) a complex of an
alternative HOPO-based ligand [3,3,3-(LI-1,2-HOPO)] with Zr; (III) a previously studied positively charged Zr-DFO complex;
(IIIa) a new, more stable conformation of the same charged
Zr-DFO complex; and (IV) a neutral, uncharged Zr-DFO
complex.
