Abstract:
The synthesis conditions of the
11C-Raclopride with domestic PET-CM-3H-IT-I synthesis module and
11C-Triflate-CH-3I as methylation agent were studied, which included the alkali equivalent, solvents, temperature, the amount of precursor and elution conditions for the product. The optimum condition was 1.5-3.0 g/L of precursor in acetone (0.2 mL), alkali equivalent (0.30-1.25 eq) and at room temperature (25 ℃) for synthesis of
11C-Raclopride. It could be got with radiochemical yield of (64.82±4.74)% (
n=46, EOB of
11C-Triflate-CH
3). The radiochemical purity was over 97% and the specific activity was at (423.61±13.43) GBq/g. It took 23 minutes from
11C-CO
2 to
11C-Raclopride, and the production radioactivity was (6.9±0.87) GBq (
n=46). The synthetic process was reliable and reproducible, and the product synthesized by this process was suitable for clinical use.
