Abstract

An efficient method to produce [1-14C] benzoic acid within a total time less than 20 min in high chemical and radiochemical yield is described. The procedure we report can be applied for the preparation of [11C]-labeled carboxylic acids suitable for evaluation in the study of human metabolism by positron emission tomography.
