An efficient method to incorporate the fluorine-18 radionuclide in 2-nitropurine-based nucleosides was developed. The nucleophilic radiofluorination of the labeling precursor with [(18)F]KF under aminopolyether-mediated conditions (Kryptofix 2.2.2/K2CO3) followed by deprotection was straightforward and, after formulation, gave 2-[(18)F]fluoroadenosine, ready for injection with a radiochemical yield of 45 ± 5%, a radiochemical purity of98%, and a specific radioactivity up to 148 GBq/μmol. A micropositron emission tomography imaging and biodistribution study on rodents was reported. |
