SYNTHESIS OF A NEW TRACER FOR CANCER IMAGING: 16alpha-[18F]FLUOROESTRADIOL-3,17beta-DISULPHAMATE
SYNTHESIS OF A NEW TRACER FOR CANCER IMAGING: 16alpha-[18F]FLUOROESTRADIOL-3,17beta-DISULPHAMATE
Römer, J.; Füchtner, F.; Steinbach, J.
The synthesis of 16alpha-[18F]fluoroestradiol-3,17beta-disulphamate ([18F]FESDS) being a new potential radiotracer for investigations in positron emission tomography is described. 16alpha-[18F]Fluoroestradiol ([18F]FES) is converted with excessive sulphamoyl chloride in absolute acetonitrile in presence of an alkali. Using kryptofix 2.2.2 and K2CO3 as alkali, [18F]FESDS was obtained in yields of 50 - 60%.
Keywords: Synthesis; 18F labelling; radiotracer
