- Base/Cryptand/Metal-Free Automated Nucleophilic Radiofluorination of [18F]FDOPA from Iodonium Salts: Importance of Hydrogen Carbonate Counterion
-
As evidenced by the number of publications and patents published in the last years, the radiosynthesis of 6-[18F]fluoro-3,4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine ([18F]FDOPA) using the nucleophilic [18F]F- process remains currently a challenge for the radiochemists scientific community even if promising methods for the radiofluorination of electron-rich aromatic structures were recently developed from arylboronate, arylstannane or iodonium salt precursors. In such context, based on the use of an iodonium triflate salt precursor, we optimized a fast and efficient radiofluorination route fully automated and free from any base, cryptand or metal catalyst for the radiosynthesis of [18F]FDOPA. Using this method, this clinically relevant radiotracer was produced in 64 min, 27–38 % RCY d.c. (n = 5), >99 % RCP, >99 % ee., and high Am 170–230 GBq/μmol. In addition, this optimization study clearly highlighted the important role of a triflate-hydrogen carbonate counterion exchange during the radiolabeling process to achieve high fluorine-18 incorporation yields.

- A novel SWCNT platform bearing DOTA and β-cyclodextrin units. "one shot" multidecoration under microwave irradiation
-
The functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) via microwave-assisted grafting reactions enables efficient multidecoration in a single step. A novel water-soluble SWCNT platform was prepared via the simple 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides under dielectric heating. Thanks to a single grafting reaction the CNT surface binds in a 1:1 ratio an amino acidic β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) derivative and the DOTAMA moiety (1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N′,N′′,N′′ ′-tetraacetic acid monoamide). This novel "one shot" synthesis, compared with multistep functionalizations, preserves the SWCNT's structural integrity (TEM images). Besides thermogravimetric analyses, the determination of the amount of β-CD and DOTA moieties grafting onto the SWCNT's surface was performed on the basis of phenolphthalein and gadolinium complexation, respectively.

- Study of the stability of the 5-aminolevulinic acid tyrosine ester in aqueous solution
-
Photodynamic therapy based on photoactivable porphyrins (PAPs) can treat various dermatological conditions. The side-effects as well as the non-selective or insufficient accumulation of PAPs in the targeted tissues limit performances. We studied the stability in solution at different temperatures (21 °C; 4 °C), different pH values (7.5; 2.0), and as a function of time of 5-aminolevulinic acid's Tyrosine-ester, a molecule presenting interesting properties to selectively produce PAPs in blood vessels after topical application. Solutions of this precursor can be kept up to 24 h at refrigerated temperatures and under acidic pH. At room temperature or physiological pH, they must be prepared minutes before their use.

- A resin-linker-vector approach to radiopharmaceuticals containing 18F: Application in the synthesis of O-(2-[18F]- Fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine
-
A Resin-linker-vector (RLV) strategy is described for the radiosynthesis of tracer molecules containing the radionuclide 18F, which releases the labelled vector into solution upon nucleophilic substitution of a polystyrene-bound arylsulfonate linker with [18F]-fluoride ion. Three model linker-vector molecules 7 a-c containing different alkyl spacer groups were assembled in solution from (4-chlorosulfonylphenyl)alkanoate esters, exploiting a lipase-catalysed chemoselective carboxylic ester hydrolysis in the presence of the sulfonate ester as a key step. The linker-vector systems were attached to aminomethyl polystyrene resin through amide bond formation to give RLVs 8 a-c with acetate, butyrate and hexanoate spacers, which were characterised by using magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy. On fluoridolysis, the RLVs 8 a, b containing the longer spacers were shown to be more effective in the release of the fluorinated model vector (4-fluorobutyl)phenylcarbamic acid tert-butyl ester (9) in NMR kinetic studies and gave superior radiochemical yields (RCY≈60 %) of the 18F- labelled vector. The approach was applied to the synthesis of the radiopharmaceutical O-(2-[18F]-fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine ([ 18F]-FET), delivering protected [18F]-FET in >90 % RCY. Acid deprotection gave [18F]-FET in an overall RCY of 41 % from the RLV. Copyright
