✦ Synopsis


A method has been developed for the carbon-14 radiosynthesis of non-narcotic morphine derivative (R)-(-)-[6a-14 C]apomorphine ð1Þ from the starting material 3,4-dimethoxy-2-nitrophenyl-N-phenethyl[carboxyl-14 C]acetamide ð5Þ. The key to this synthesis was the application of the Bischler-Napieralski cyclodehydration to 1-(3,4dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl)dihydro[1-14 C]isoquinoline ð4Þ, followed by N-methylation and reduction to 1-(3,4-dimethoxy-2-nitrobenzyl)-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro[1-14 C] isoquinoline ð3Þ. A final Pschorr reductive ring closure followed by chiral separation to give (R)-(-)-[6a-14 C]apomorphine dimethyl ether ð2Þ and O-demethylation led to (R)-(-)-[6a-14 C]apomorphine ð1Þ with a specific activity of 55 mCi/mmol, radiochemical purity of >98% and chiral purity of >99%.
