Abstract
A generally applicable synthetic approach to dipeptide-DOTAM conjugates has been developed which is based on the peralkylation of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (cyclen) with protected N-iodoacetyl dipeptides. Standardized procedures were used for the alkylation, metalation, and purification of the resultant lanthanide complexes. Using this approach, we have been able to rapidly and reliably prepare and screen five different ligands each with up to six lanthanide ions. This preliminary investigation has identified several paramagnetic compounds with strong chemical exchange saturation transfer (PARACEST) properties in water at physiological temperature and pH. Extension of the synthetic approach to a wide variety of amino acids is possible.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
