Formation rates of Ce(DOTA){sub {minus}}, Eu(DOTA){sup {minus}}, and Yb(DOTA){sup {minus}} were studied spectrophotmetrically. (H{sub 4}DOTA = 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N{prime},N{double_prime},N{double_prime}{prime}-tretraacetic acid.) Intermediates were detected and characterized by NMR, PH-metry, and spectrophotometry. Rate constants for rearrangements of intermediates and protonation of Gd(DOTA){sup {minus}} are reported.
