Here is Toyota's requirement.

Type "Toyota Super Long Life Coolant"

Or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, and non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology.

I cannot advise you on specific brands. I gave you the requirements and now you have to read the container to determine if it meets all of those requirements. It may be smarter to just buy it from Toyota.
