---

The synthesis and metal complexation of a glucosamine-appended 2,2-dipicolylamine ligand to the tricarbonyls of ^99mTc and ¹⁸⁶Re is described; the ligand was found to bind in a tridentate fashion with the glucosamine function remaining pendant, and the ^99mTc complex was found to exhibit exceptional stability towards in vitro ligand exchange experiments.
