Technetium complexes of the ligand PnAO are of interest as commercial radiopharmaceuticals.In general, PnAOs are synthesized by alkylation of a propylenediamine derivative with 3-chloro-3-methyl-2-nitrosobutane (2).This alkylation reaction proved to be low yielding.With modestly bulky substituents at the 2-position of 1,3-diaminopropane, little or none of the required PnAO was obtained.As a result, an alternative approach of the synthesis of PnAO was developed.This method involved the alkylation of the propylenediamine with 3-bromo-3-methylbutan-2-one (18) followed by oximation of the resulting diamine-diketone (19).By this method, PnAOs were prepared in good yield, even with bulky C-2 substituents.Fourteen PnAO derivatives were prepareed by this method.We also describe the syntheses of several new propylenediamine dervatives.
