Abstract
Preparation of no‐carrier‐added fluorine‐18 labeled GBR 12909 (1‐[2‐(bis(4‐fluorophenyl)methoxy)ethyl]‐4‐(3‐phenylpropyl)piperazine), a specific and high affinity inhibitor of dopamine reuptake, is described. 4‐Fluoro‐4′‐[^18^F]fluorobenzophenone was prepared by [^18^F]fluoride ion substitution of the corresponding trimethylammonium trifluoromethanesulfonate salt. The [^18^F]benzophenone was reduced to the benzhydrol, chlorinated, then used to alkylate 1‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐4‐(3‐phenyl‐propyl)piperazine to yield [^18^F]GBR 12909 in high specific activity (≥2000 Ci/mmol) and overall yields of 10–16% (corrected, 140 min synthesis).
