We have developed a fully automatic method for the synthesis of 16α-[¹⁸F]fluoroestradiol ([F]FES) using a TRACERlab FXFN module. Following [¹⁸F]fluorination, the intermediate was hydrolyzed with a mixture of 2 N HCl in acetonitrile (CH3CN) and then neutralized with sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3). After HPLC purification, the decay-corrected radiochemical yield of [¹⁸F]FES was 50 ± 2.35% (n=4), which was stable up to 96.1 ± 0.3% (n=4) at 8 h. This new fully automated synthesis method provided high and reproducible yields and the produced [F]FES could be used to monitor in-vivo human estrogen receptor α ligand binding domain gene expression using PET images.
我们开发了一种使用TRACERlab FXFN模块全自动合成16α-[¹⁸F]氟雌二醇([F]FES)的方法。在进行[¹⁸F]氟化反应后,中间体用2N盐酸与乙腈(CH3CN)的混合溶液进行水解,然后用碳酸氢钠(NaHCO3)中和。经过高效液相色谱纯化后,[¹⁸F]FES的衰变校正放射化学产率为50±2.35%(n = 4),在8小时内其稳定性高达96.1±0.3%(n = 4)。这种全新的全自动合成方法提供了高且可重复的产率,所制备的[F]FES可用于通过正电子发射断层扫描(PET)图像监测体内人类雌激素受体α配体结合域基因的表达。
