We have evaluated the solvent and thermal effects on spectroscopic parameters of 99Tc complexes coordinated to explicit water molecules. Molecular dynamics simulations were performed followed by hyperfine coupling constant calculations (Aiso). Our results show a significant increase of Aiso, which demonstrates that the studied compounds can be promising contrast agents in MRI.

The impact of the solvent on aP and aN decreases strikingly upon increasing both the bulkiness and the polarity of the substituents around the nitroxyl moiety.
