5-Fluoro-2-aryloxazolo[5,4-b]pyridines were synthesized and investigated as potential 18F containing β-amyloid PET ligands. In competition binding assays using human AD brain homogenates, compounds 14b, 16b, and 17b were identified as having favorable potency versus human β-amyloid plaque and were radiolabeled for further evaluation in in vitro binding and in vivo PET imaging experiments. These studies led to the identification of 17b (MK-3328) as a candidate PET ligand for the clinical assessment of β-amyloid plaque load.
