Abstract
[^123^I]tert‐Butyl 8‐iodo‐5,6‐dihydro‐5‐methyl‐6‐oxo‐4__H__‐imidazo [1,5‐a][1,4]benzodiazepine 3‐carboxylate ([^123^I]3), a high affinity and selective radioligand for the diazepam insensitive (DI) benzodiazepine receptor was synthesized in 2 steps from tert‐butyl 8‐bromo‐5,6‐dihydro‐5‐methyl‐6‐oxo‐4__H__‐imidazo[1,5‐a][1,4]benzodiazepine 3‐carboxylate (4). A key step in the synthesis of this potential SPECT imaging agent utilized (Ph~3~P)~3~Pd mediated stannylation of 4 with (Bu~3~Sn)~2~ to the corresponding 8‐tributyltin derivative 5. Iododestannylation of 5 with no carrier added [^123^]NaI in aqueous ethanolic CH~3~CO~3~H furnished [^123^I]3 (85%) in greater than 98% radiochemical purity following TLC purification.
