Simple, Rapid and Reliable Preparation of [(11)C]-(+)-α-DTBZ of High Quality for Routine Applications

[(11)C]-(+)-α-DTBZ has been used as a marker of dopaminergic terminal densities in human striatum and expressed in islet beta cells in the pancreas. We aimed to establish a fully automated and simple procedure for the synthesis of [(11)C]-(+)-α-DTBZ for routine applications. [(11)C]-(+)-α-DTBZ was s...

description [(11)C]-(+)-α-DTBZ has been used as a marker of dopaminergic terminal densities in human striatum and expressed in islet beta cells in the pancreas. We aimed to establish a fully automated and simple procedure for the synthesis of [(11)C]-(+)-α-DTBZ for routine applications. [(11)C]-(+)-α-DTBZ was synthesized from a 9-hydroxy precursor in acetone and potassium hydroxide with [(11)C]-methyl triflate and was purified by solid phase extraction using a Vac tC-18 cartridge. Radiochemical yields based on [(11)C]-methyl triflate (corrected for decay) were 82.3% ± 3.6%, with a specific radioactivity of 60 GBq/μmol. Time elapsed was less than 20 min from end of bombardment to release of the product for quality control.
