Popis: | We present the synthesis and characterization of F18-labeled fluorinated derivatives of resazurin, a probe for cell viability. The compounds were prepared by direct fluorination of resazurin with diluted [F18]-F2 gas under acidic conditions. The fluorination occurs into the ortho-positions to the hydroxyl group producing various mono-, di-, and trifluorinated derivatives. The properties of the fluorinated resazurins are similar to the parent compound with the addition of fluorine leading to decreased pKa values and a bathochromic shift of the absorption maxima. The fluorinated resazurin derivatives can be used as probes for observation of cell viability in various cells, tissues and organs using a combination of positron emission tomography and direct optical imaging of Cerenkov luminescence. |
