Abstract
A new high yield 123I radioiodination (97%), based on the Cu(I) assisted isotopic exchange in an ethanol water mixture, of 15(p-I-phenyl)-9 methyl pentadecanoic acid, a potential myocardial tracer, is proposed. The method allows a true kit preparation of radioiodinated phenyl fatty acids for a substrate concentration of ±10-6 moles. High specific activities (>0.1 mCi/μg) can be obtained when coupling the labelling method to HPLC purification with an overall radiochemical yield of 75%.
