Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is one of noninvasive imaging and diagnostic methods in today's medicine. The most commonly measured nucleus is H1 of the water molecules present in the human body. There are also methods that use signal saturation transfer between the contrast agent and water molecules via exchangeable H1 nuclei, or use a different nucleus like F19 . Compounds that show a high potential in this area are complexes of paramagnetic ions such as Gd3+ , Eu3+ , Co2+ , Cu2+ and Ni2+ , which can affect relaxation times and chemical shifts of other atoms due to their magnetic properties. This Master's thesis focuses on ligands L1 and L2 which were prepared in the Bachelor thesis. The main focus is on preparation of complexes with selected paramagnetic ions and subsequent study of their properties relevant for a potential use as contrast agents for F19 -MRI and CEST methods. Keywords: F19 -MRI, CEST, macrocyclic ligands, coordination chemistry
