The novel 2-mercaptoimidazole derivatives, 1-[4-((2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl)butyl]-2-mercaptoimidazole (3) and methyl[4-((2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl))butyl] (2-mercapto-1-methylimidazol-5-yl)methanamide ( 8), were efficiently labelled with 11 C through methylation of the thioketone function

✦ Synopsis
The renin‐angiotensin system regulates blood pressure via activation of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT~1~R). The AT~1~R is involved in the pathology of cardiac and renal diseases such as heart failure and diabetic nephropathy. The aim of this study was to synthesize and characterize the O‐[^11^ C]methylated derivative of the clinically used AT~1~ receptor blocker losartan as a novel AT~1~R PET imaging radioligand. [^11^ C]Methyl‐losartan was reliably synthesized (n ≥ 40) via methylation of tetrazole‐protected losartan followed by deprotection using HCl in an overall yield of 30%–60% (decay‐corrected from [^11^ C]MeI). Radiochemical purity was >99% and specific activity 700–3600 mCi/µmol. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
