Abstract: Methods of coupling targeting molecules to multidentate aza ligands of general formula (I): in which: R1 through R5 and FG are as defined in the specification are presented. The aza ligands and/or the resulting conjugates may be labeled with bi-trivalent ions of the metal elements having atomic number ranging between 20 and 31, 39, 42, 43, 44, 49, and between 57 and 83, and radioisotopes chosen among 203Pb, 67Ga, 68Ga, 72As, 111In, 113In, 90Y, 97Ru, 62Cu, 64Cu, 52Fe, 52mMn, 140La, 175Yb, 153Sm, 166Ho, 149Pm, 177Lu, 142Pr, 159Gd, 212Bi, 47Sc, 149Pm, 67Cu, 111Ag, 199Au, 161Tb, 51Cr, 167Tm, 141Ce, 168Yb, 88Y, 165Dy, 166Dy, 97Ru, 103Ru, 186Re, 188Re, 99mTc, 211Bi, 212Bi, 213Bi, 214Bi, 105Rh, 109Pd, 117mSn, 177Sn and 199Au.
