Research Abstract |
An efficient synthesis of [fluoroacetyl-^<18>F] fluoromelatonin (N^<omega>- [^<18>F] Fluoroacety1-5-methoxytryptamine) starting from [^<18>F]fluoride has been established. [^<18>F] Fluoride was produced by the ^<18>O (p, n)^<18>F nuclear reaction from a circulating 20%-enriched [^<18>O] water target using the Tohoku University Cyclotron. The ^<18>F nuclide thereby formed was converted to potassium [^<18>F] fluoride. The reaction of[^<18>F]fluoride with ethyl p-toluenesulfonyloxyacetate derived from ethyl bromoacetate with silver p-toluenesulfonate afforded ethyl [^<18>F] fluoroacetate, which was then hydrolyzed with alkali and condensed with 5-methoxytryptamine in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide to give the desired radioactive isotope in a 26.7% radiochemical yield. The purity, specific activity and the total time required for its synthesis are>98%, 540 mCi/mumol and ca.90 min, respectively. N^<omega>- [^<18>F] Fluoroacetylserotonin was synthesized under similar conditions in 22.6% radiochemical yield. The purity and specific activity of the hormone are>98% and 600 mCi/mumol, respectively.
