Abstract:
Combined the home made PET-MV-2-IT module with carbon-11 methyl iodide module, it was used for synthesis of carbon-11 radiotracers. Methylation agent
11C-CH
3-Triflate was synthesized with methyl iodide module. The
11C-CH
3-Triflate was bubbled to the second reaction vessels in PET-MV-2-IT module, which the precursors were stored. The productions were purified by semi-HPLC and solid phase extraction (SPE) to get the final radiopharmaceuticals. There are four carbon-11 radiopharmaceuticals were synthesized with the method, which it were
11C-Raclopride,
11C-PIB,
11C-DASB and
11C-PK11195,and synthesis yields were (38.2±4.5)% (
n=10),(68.4±3.2)% (
n=12), (52.4±5.5)%(
n=4)and (45.6±7.1)% (
n=8)respectively. All productions radiochemical purity were over 95%. Assembled the methyl iodide module with PET-MV-2-F, which it had semi-HPLC, we can synthesize most carbon-11 radiopharmaceuticals for clinical used.
