## Abstract Many people suffer from psychiatric illnesses like depression and anorexia. Relevant to these diseases is amongst others a malfunctioning of brain 5‐HT~2A~‐receptors. To allow __in vivo__ quantification of these receptors with Single Photon Emission Computerized Tomography (SPECT), a ra

Abstract
This work reports the synthesis, radiolabelling and in vivo evaluation in NMRI mice of [^123^I]‐(4‐fluorophenyl)[1‐(3‐iodophenethyl)piperidin‐4‐yl]methanone ([^123^I]‐3‐I‐CO) as a potential SPECT tracer for the 5‐HT~2A~ receptor. The tributylstannylprecursor was synthesized with a 15% overall yield. Radiolabelling was performed using an electrophilic iododestannylation with yields of 85%. Radiochemical purity was always >95%. Log P was determined to be 3.10±0.10. The tracer showed good uptake in mouse brain (6.3±1.3% ID/g tissue at 10 min p.i., 2±0.36% ID/g tissue at 1 h p.i.). These results warrant further research in larger animals to determine suitability of [^123^I]‐3‐I‐CO as a 5‐HT~2A~ tracer. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
