Derivatives of etomidate were evaluated as inhibitors of adrenal steroid 11β-hydroxylations. Stereoselective coupling by Mitsunobu produced chirally pure analogues to study the effect of configuration, modification of the ester, and substitution in the phenyl ring, with the aim to probe specific sites for introducing a radionuclide. Iodophenyl metomidate (IMTO) labeled with iodine-131 served as radioligand for structure-affinity relationship studies. We have characterized the kinetic parameters of specific 131I-IMTO binding on rat adrenal membranes and used the displacement of 131I-IMTO binding to evaluate functionalized MTO analogues. Our results indicated that (1) (R)-configuration is essential for high affinity, (2) highest potency resides in the ethyl, 2-propyl, and 2-fluoroethyl esters, and (3) substitution of the phenyl ring is well tolerated. The clinically used inhibitors metyrapone and ketoconazole inhibited 131I-IMTO binding with low affinity. Incubation of selected analogues with human adrenocortical NCI-h295 cells demonstrated a high correlation with the inhibitory effect on cortisol secretion.
Radiolabelled phenylethyl imidazole caboxylic acid ester derivatives

Halogenated carboxylic ester derivatives of phenylethyl imidazole, and their method of preparation are disclosed. Radio-halogenated forms of these compounds are ideally suited for positron-imaging of the adrenal glands, as it is known that these compounds demonstrate a selective and high rate of accumulation in the adrenals. The method of preparing these derivatives proceeds by the conversion of a stable, non-radioactive intermediate having trialkylstannyl leaving groups. These intermediates are efficiently converted to the corresponding halogenated forms by substitution of the trialkylstannyl group with the halogen or radiohalogen.
