Abstract
(+)‐N‐[^11^C]‐Benzyl‐N‐normetazocine (1__S__,5__S__,9__S__‐(+)‐cis‐2‐[^11^C]‐benzyl‐2′‐hydroxy‐5,9‐dimethyl‐6,7‐benzomorphan), a potent and selective ligand for the σ receptor, was prepared by N‐benzylation of (+)‐cis‐N‐normetazocine with [α‐^11^C]‐benzyl iodide in ethanol using sodium hydrogen carbonate as the proton acceptor. The radiotracer was purified by semi‐preparative reverse‐phase HPLC. The average specific activity was 746 mCi/μmol calculated at end‐of‐synthesis (EOS). The average time of synthesis including formulation was 35 minutes.
