Abstract
A rapid, one-pot, synthesis of cyclopropane [11C]carbonyl chloride was developed. This synthesis proceeded in 80% radiochemical yield (EOB) in a synthesis time of 10 minutes. This acid chloride was then used to synthesize a model compound, [11C]cyclorphan, by alkylation of norlevorphanol followed by reduction of the intermediate [11C]amide in an overall synthesis time of 55 minutes and a radiochemical yield of 15% (EOB). The biodistribution of [11C]cyclorphan in control and naloxone pretreated mice showed non-specific binding and rapid clearance from brain.
This one-pot synthesis of cyclopropane [11C]carbonyl chloride allows for the rapid synthesis of [11C]cyclorphan, a model compound with non-specific binding and rapid clearance from the brain.
