Abstract
Synthesis and in vitro evaluation of [O-methyl-11C]1-(2- chlorophenyl)-5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid piperidin-1-ylamide ([11C]-1), a potential imaging agent for CB 1 receptors using PET is described. 1-(2-Chlorophenyl)-5-(4- hydroxyphenyl)-4-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid piperidin-1-ylamide (5), the precursor for radiolabeling, was synthesized from 4-OTBDPS-propiophenone (2) in five steps with 30% overall yield. The reaction of alcohol 5 with [ 11C]MeOTf at 60°C afforded [11C]-1 with an average radiochemical yield of 14.5% (EOS) and >2000Ci/mmol specific activity. The radiotracer was found to selectively label CB1 receptors in slide-mounted sections of postmortem human brain containing prefrontal cortex as demonstrated by in vitro autoradiography using phosphor imaging.
