Abstract

The present invention provides a novel method for preparing high-purity gadobutrol or hydrates thereof. The preparation method of the present invention can have an advantage of simplifying a process by forming a gadolinium complex in-situ without purification of a butrol intermediate and omitting a resin purification process unlike a conventional method for synthesizing gadobutrol. In addition, the preparation method of the present invention can be used to produce high-purity gadobutrol or hydrates thereof at a high yield only through the simple process as above, and thus can be useful in mass production.
