2020, Journal of Chromatography ACitation Excerpt :Furthermore, the elution order of the enantiomers was altered by this mobile phase, probably due to the changing chiral stationary phase conformation. In a challenging study by Chakraborty [69] CCC was utilized to purify the racemic precursor mixture to obtain pure individual precursors (enantiomerically). This study enabled the purification of the enantiomers (R,R)-[11C]O-methyl reboxetine and (S,S)-[11C]O-methyl reboxetine which could be applied as a precursor in the preparation of a PET-RL, separately.

2017, Seminars in Nuclear MedicineCitation Excerpt :The syntheses of endogenous steroids have been reported, including [17α-11C] methyltestosterone.76 Several neurotransmitters and their precursors have been studied, including 11C l-tyrosine,41 l-DOPA,77 l-tryptophan,31 5-hydroxy-l-tryptophan,31 11C epinephrine,78 and 11C norepinephrine.79 11C epinephrine has been used to study cardiac sympathetic nerve function in the context of heart transplantation because the latter is associated with decreased sympathetic nerve integrity.80
Radiotracers for cardiac sympathetic innervation: Transport kinetics and binding affinities for the human norepinephrine transporter
2013, Nuclear Medicine and BiologyCitation Excerpt :Assessment of the kinetic profiles of these new compounds not only provides valuable structure–activity relation data but also allows comparisons with the existing radiotracers and biogenic amines. [11C]-(−)-meta-Hydroxyephedrine (HED) and [11C]-(−)-epinephrine (EPI) were prepared using previously published methods [6,7]. The five different [11C]-labeled phenethylguanidines studied were synthesized using methods previously reported [5].
