Abstract
The [123I]labelled imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine [123I]ioddozolpidem 4 was found to exhibit preferential activity towards Peripheral rather than Central Benzodiazepine receptors in vivo and was synthesised for the potential study of the Peripheral Benzodiazepine Receptors (PBR) using SPECT. [123I]Iodozolpidem was prepared from the corresponding tributyl tin precursor by iododestannylation with Na[123I] in the presence of peracetic acid or chloramine-T. Purification by semipreparative C-18 RP HPLC gave the product in radiochemical yields of 60–85%. The product was obtained in >97% chemical and radiochemical purity with a specific activity >80 GBq/μmol. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
