By means of positron emission tomography the uptake and kinetics of N-(methyl-11C)clozapine in different brain regions have been studied in Rhesus monkeys. 11C-clozapine rapidly entered the brain and maximum radioactive uptake was seen 5-12 min after administration. Highest uptake was measured in th
1-11C-acetoacetic acid was synthesized by carboxylation of the acetone carbanion. Purification was carried out using HPLC. The product was obtained with a radiochemical yield of up to 58%, corrected for decay, in a total preparation time of 30 min. The distribution of 1-11C-acetoacetic acid after in
