Abstract

Lipophilic tertiary amines attached to cyclopentadienyl technetium‐99m tricarbonyl (cytectrene) have been prepared with high radiochemical yield and purity. Biodistribution studies in mice showed that [^99m^Tc]‐cytectrenes, containing in their structure an N‐methylpiperidine, were accumulated in the brain up to 2.8 % of injected dose with high brain‐to‐blood ratios at 15 min p.i.^1^. They therefore indicate some potential as brain imaging agents.

It has to be pointed out that the N‐methylpiperidine ester showed similar biological behaviour as the keto derivative. This indicates that the conversion to polar metabolite(s) via hydrolysis of the ester group ‐ as described for [^99m^Tc]‐ECD ‐ is not essential for brain retention.
