Abstract

The synthesis of (E)‐6‐(bromomethylene)‐tetrahydro‐3‐([4‐^3^H]‐1‐naphthalenyl)‐2__H__‐pyran‐2‐one at a specific activity of 24.0 Ci/mmol is described. This probe was synthesized to determine whether (E)‐6‐(bromomethylene)‐tetrahydro‐3‐(1‐naphthalenyl)‐2__H__‐pyran‐2‐one inhibits calcium‐independent myocardial phospholipase A~2~ irreversibly via covalent modification. The material was synthesized in four steps from 1‐naphthalene acetic acid via [4‐^3^H]‐1‐naphthaleneacetic acid. The yield from [4‐^3^H]‐1‐naphthaleneacetic acid was 29.7%. The radiochemical purity of the HPLC‐purified final product was 99.5%.
