We describe the synthesis of 2'-[F-18]fluoroflumazenil (FFMZ), which differs from the typically used [F-18]fluoroethylflumazenil (FEFMZ) for benzodiazepine receptor imaging. For one-pot one-step labeling, the precursors, 2'-tosyloxyflumazenil (TFMZ) and 2'-mesyloxyflumazenil (MFMZ), were synthesized in three steps. The precursors were successfully labeled with no-carrier-added F-18-fluoride which was activated by repeated azeotropic distillation with Kryptofix 2.2.2./potassium carbonate in MeCN. An automated system for labeling and purification of [F-18]FFMZ was developed. Labeling efficiency and radiochemical purity of [F-18]FFMZ after synthesis by the automated system were 68% and 98%, respectively. Specific binding of [F-18]FFMZ to central benzodiazepine receptor of rats was demonstrated by phosphoimaging. (C)2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
