We report the synthesis of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7-trisacetic acid (DO3A) derivatives of benzothiazole and their Gd(III) complexes of the type [Gd(DO3A-BTA)(H 2 O)] ( 2a , b ) for use as a single molecule theranostic agent. The complexes are not only tumor-specific but also intracellular, enhancing MR images of cytosols and nuclei of tumor cells such as MCF-7, MDA-MB-231, SK-HEP-1, HeLa, and Caki-2. 2a and 2b reveal antiproliferative, activities as demonstrated by GI 50 and TGI values obtainable form the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assays performed on these cell lines.
