L-[ 35S]Homocysteine thiolactone has been synthesized by demethylation of L-{ 35S]Methionine with sodium in liquid ammonia and subsequent lactonisation in acid solution. The radiochemical yield of the carrier added synthesis was in the range of 45 to 50 % with a radiochemical purity higher than 96 %

## Abstract Optically pure (__R__)β and (__S__)β3βaminotetradeuteroβ2βthiophenone (Dβ and Lβ[^2^H~4~]homocysteine thiolactone) for use as substrates for metabolic and pharmacokinetic studies has been prepared. The racemic [^2^H~4~]homocysteine thiolactone hydrochloride was prepared from commerciall
The synthesis of l-[llC]-D,L-homocysteine thiolactone, a potential tracer for PET imaging of ischemic heart regions, is described. The labelling is achieved by reaction o f [llC]carbon dioxide with 0-1 ithiated S-(tetrahydropyran-Z-y1)3-thiopropyl isonitri le. Deprotection o f the mercapto group and
