Abstract
The one step radiosynthesis of 2-amino-6- [18F]fluoro-9-(4- hydroxy-3-hydroxymethyl-butyl) purine (6-[18F]fluoropenciclovir) 6 is reported. Radiolabeled product 6-[18F]fluoropenciclovir 6 was prepared by radiofluorination of compound 4 with [18F]KF and isolated by a silica Sep-Pak cartridge. The radiochemical yield of compound 6 was 45-55% decay corrected (d.c.) in six runs with radiochemical purity >98% and the radiosynthesis time was 35-42 min from end of bombardment (EOB).
