A lipiodol solution of (188)Re-4-hexadecyl-2,2,9,9-tetramethyl-4,7-diaza-1,10-decanedithiol (HTDD) has been successfully developed for liver cancer therapy; however, its preparation requires a multi-step synthesis and it is characterized by a low labeling yield. We synthesized a new compound, 4-hexadecyl-4,7-diaza-1,10-decanedithioacetate (AHDD), without gem dimethyl
