In order to improve the available methods to produce an immunoconjugate the use of longer heterobifunctional cross-linking reagents were investigated. Two new maleimidobenzoyl spacers have been synthesized in a one step process from 4-maleimidobenzoic acid. The new heterobifunctional cross-linking reagents were fully characterized by their IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectra. These spacers are selectively attached to NH2-3' of the daunosamine moiety of doxorubicin. The spacer-doxorubicin derivatives were also characterized by 1H NMR spectrometry before coupling to thiol groups of thiolated anti-carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) monoclonal antibody (11-285-14). These conjugates contain 1.51-3.44 molecules of drug for each molecule of monoclonal antibody (MAb).
