The regioselective radiofluorodestannylation of 6-trimethylstannyl-L-m-tyrosine derivative 6 with [18F]F2 and [18F]acetyl hypofluorite afforded, after acid hydrolysis, 6-[18F]fluoro-L-m-tyrosine (8a) in radiochemical yields of 23 and 17%, respectively. Similarly, 4-[18F]fluoro-L-m-tyrosine (13a) was

✦ Synopsis
A protected 6-trimethylstannyl dopa derivative 6 has been synthesized for the first time as a precursor for the preparation of 6-[18F]fluoro-L-dopa. The tin derivative 6 readily reacted with electrophilic radiofluorinating agents such as [18F]F2 and [18F]AcOF. The [18F]fluoro intermediate 7 was easily hydrolyzed with HBr and the product 6-[18F]fluoro-L-dopa was isolated after HPLC purification in a maximum radiochemical yield of 25%, ready for human use. The various intermediates, the stannyl precursor 6 and the final product (after 18F decay) were all fully characterized by 1H, 13C, 19F and 119Sn NMR as well as high resolution mass spectroscopy.
