Popis: An improved synthesis of [11C]raclopride is reported. The precursor desmethyl‐raclopride was synthesized from 3,5‐dichloro‐2,6‐dimethoxybenzoic acid and (S)‐(−)‐2‐aminoethyl‐1‐ethylpyrrolidine via a straightforward, four‐step synthetic approach with 29% overall chemical yield. [11C]Raclopride was prepared by O‐[11C]methylation of the precursor with [11C]methyl triflate and purification with a semi‐preparative HPLC method in 20–34% radiochemical yield, based on [11C]methyl bromide, decay corrected to end of bombardment (EOB).
