Abstract

Benzyloxy-2-chloroquinoline was reacted with fluorine-18 labelled potassium cryptand fluoride, followed by catalytic hydrogenation to prepare [ 18F]2-fluoroquinolin-8-ol in high radiochemical yields (30%; uncorrected and relative to [18F]-fluoride), specific activities (>1 Ci μmol-1) and radiochemical purities (>99%) within 70 min; PET-CT imaging with this new radiotracer in double transgenic mice shows excellent promise for imaging Alzheimer's disease.
