Diamagnetic chemical exchange saturation transfer (diaCEST)
agents form a new class of imaging agents with unique
magnetic resonance properties. Here we present a series
of anthranilic acid analogues as examples of Uncommonly
Shifted HYdrogen-bonded (U SHY) diaCEST agents, which
produce significant and tunable contrast between 4.8 -
9.3 ppm from water. Five of these analogues, N-sulfonyl
anthranilic acids, are highly soluble and produce strong
CEST contrast. We also discovered that flufenamic acid,
a commercial non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug,
displays CEST contrast at 4.8 ppm. These N-H U SHY
agents, with contrast insensitive to pH, are
complementary to existing diaCEST probes.
