The field of radiochemistry is moving toward exclusive use of automated synthesis modules for production of clinical radiopharmaceutical doses. Such a move not only comes with many advantages but also presents radiochemists with the challenge of re-configuring synthesis modules for production of radiopharmaceuticals that require non-conventional radiochemistry while maintaining full automation. Herein, we continue our series of articles showcasing the versatility of the Tracerlab FX synthesis modules by presenting straightforward, fully automated methods for preparing a range of carbon-11 labeled radiopharmaceuticals using a Tracerlab FXC-Pro. Strategies for production of [11C]acetate, [11C]carfentanil, [ 11C]choline, [11C]3-amino-4-[2-[(di(methyl)amino)methyl] phenyl]sulfanylbenzonitrile ([11C]DASB), (+)-a-[11C] dihydroterabenazine ([11C]DTBZ), [11C]flumazenil ([ 11C]FMZ), meta-hydroxyephedrine ([11C]HED), [ 11C]methionine, [11C]PBR28, [11C]Pittsburgh Compound B ([11C]PiB), 1-[11C]methylpiperidin-4-yl propionate ([11C]PMP), and [11C]raclopride are presented.

A novel approach to the synthesis of L-[S-methyl-11C]methionine, (11C]MET) is described which involves a commercial C18 Sep-Pak Plus as a solid-phase support material for the [11C]methylation step. The present method, which uses [11C]CH3I produced by the classical LiAlH4/HI route, supplies [11C]MET ready for injection within 11 min from the end of bombardment (EOB) with a radiochemical yield, decay corrected at EOB, of 78% and a radiochemical purity at the end of synthesis (EOS) higher than 99%. The required setup is extremely simple and easy to automate and can be reset for a further synthesis within few minutes. Moreover, due to its versatility, the method can be utilized for the production of other radiopharmaceuticals requiring a simple [11C]methylation.
Supercritical fluid synthesis and on-line preparative supercritical fluid chromatography of 11C-labelled compounds in supercritical ammonia
