A new method of synthesis of DL-[ 7-14C]indospicine and DL-2-amino-[ 7-1 4C]pimelic acid and their nonradioactive equivalents is reported. The combined radiochemical yield of both compounds, starting from potassium 1 14C]cyanide was 15.3%. Indospicine was isolated as the flavianate.

β¦ Synopsis
D L -t y r o ~i n e -4 -~~C has been synthesized with an overall yield 29.3 based on phenol-1-14C as the starting material. Anisole-l-14C was prepared by methylation of phenol-1-14C with dimethyl sulfate. The radioactive anisole was then converted to p-anisaldehyde-4-14C by a modijied Gattermann reaction and then condensed with hydantoin io give 5-(4-methoxybenzylidene-4-~4C) hydantoin. The hydantoin was then converted into DL-tyrosine-4-14C.

The causes of carnitine deficiency syndromes are not completely understood, but decomposition of L-carnitine in vivo is likely t o be involved. Carnitine is metabolized to y-butyrobetaine, and crotonobetaine is probably an intermediate in this pathway. To validate experimentally the precursor-produc
The phenoperidine hydrochloride was labelled with l4C at the carboethoxy group, in six steps from diethanolamine. The carbon-14 labelled benzyl cyanide precursor was prepared from Na CN and benzyl chloride 14
## Abstract Two labeled isotopomers of Lβtyrosine, LβTyr, have been synthesized using specific properties of the enzymes phenylanine ammonia lyase, PAL, and Lβphenylalanine hydroxylase. In an intermediate step [1β^14^C]β, and [2β^14^C]βLβphenylalanine, LβPhe, have been obtained from [1β^14^C]β, and
