✦ Synopsis
Various [18F]
fluoro aromatic ~x-methyI-L-amino acids 11 have been synthesized with high enantiomeric purity (ee > 97%). These new radiopharmaceuticals for Positron Emission Tomography (PET). potential inhibitors of enzymatic functions, were regiospecifically labelled by nucleophilic substitution on trimethylammoniumbenzaldehyde triflate precursors 9. The [18Flfluoro aromatic aldehydes 12 obtained were easily converted to the corresponding [18Flfluorobenzyl halides [13 (X = I)l.
After alkylation of the lithium enolate of (2S,5S)-I-tert-Boc-2-tert-butyl-3,5-dimethyl-imidazolidin-4-one 2, the adducts were cleaved to give, after HPLC purification, various [18F]fluoro-O~-methyl amino acid analogs with radiochemical yields of 10% (End of Bombardment. EOB) after a synthesis time of 120 min. The corresponding [19F]fluorinated amino acids 4 and [19F]fluoro intermediates were also prepared.
