✦ Synopsis


An enzymatic method is described for the synthesis of llC-labelled (-)-epinephrine in which the c1 'Clrnethyl group is sequencially transferred from L-[methyl-l lC]methionine to ( -) -norepinephrine via S-adenosyl-L-[methyl-l ' C ] r n ethionine respectively by the enzymes L-methionine-S-adenosine transferase (M.A.T) and phenylethanolamine-N-methyl transferase (P.N.M.T). Chromatographically pure "C-epinephrine having a specific activity approximately 200 Ci/mmol is obtained 35 minutes after the synthesis of the starting compound L-[methyl-llC]methionine.

Preliminary results are presented for the dynamics of the distribution of the "C-epinephrine in organs of the rabbit by gamma scintigraphy.

## Abstract This article describes the radiosynthesis of ^11^C‐labelled S‐adenosylmethionine by an enzymatic process. This methyl donor was prepared by condensation of L‐(methyl‐^11^C) methionine with ATP. The synthesis and purification could be carried out in 20 minutes with a final yield of 80 %.
