✦ Synopsis


Dexetimide (Fig. la), a potent muscarinic cholinergic receptor antagonist, and levetimide (Fig. lb), its pharmacologically inactive enantiomer, were labeled with "C for non-invasive in vivo studies of muscarinic cholinergic receptors in the human brain using positron emission tomography. The syntheses were completed in approximately 32 min using [ct-HC]benzyl iodide as the precursor. The synthesis, purification, characterization and determination of specific activity are presented and discussed.
