## Abstract We report the synthesis of ^11^C‐labelled choline using the reaction of “nocarrier‐added” ^11^C‐labelled methyliodide and 2‐amino‐(N,N‐dimethyl)‐ethanol. After determining the optimum temperature and duration for the reaction, we achieved a radiochemical yield of about 30% and the radio

Abstract
^11^C‐Labelled benzene derivatives were prepared catalytically by trimerizing acetylene‐^11^C with acetylene and propyne carriers over 1.5 grams of silica‐alumina support activated by potassium chromate (0.2% by weight). Optimized yields of the ^11^C‐labelled aromatics were obtained when the reactants were exposed to the catalyst for 10 minutes at 24°C. A minimum addition of 50 μmole of alkyne carrier was necessary before the trimerization proceeded to give appreciable yields of ^11^C‐labelled aromatics. In the competitive trimerization of acetylene‐^11^C with acetylene and propyne carriers, three ^11^C‐labelled aromatic products were generated: benzene, toluene, and xylene. From these studies acetylene was observed to be 1.6 times more reactive than propyne. In addition, the observed distribution of ^11^C‐labelled xylenes (3.4% ortho, 10.6% meta, and 86% para) indicates an apparent regiospecificity in the trimerization of ^11^C‐acetylene with propyne.
