Herein, we present a one-step labeling procedure of N-succinimidyl-4-[18F]-fluorobenzoate ([18F]SFB) starting from spirocyclic iodonium ylide precursors. Precursor syntheses succeeded via a simple one-pot, two-step synthesis sequence, in yields of approximately 25%. Subsequent 18F-nucleophilic aromatic labeling was performed, and radiochemical incorporations (RCCs) from 5–35% were observed. Purification could be carried out using HPLC and subsequent solid phase extraction. Radiochemical purity (RCP) of >95% was determined. The total synthesis time, including purification and formulation, was no longer than 60 min. In comparison to the established 3-step synthesis route of [18F]SFB, this one-step approach avoids formation of volatile radioactive side-products and simplifies automatization.

Background: To optimize [18F] 9-fluoropropyl-(+)-dihydrotetrabenazine (18F-FP-(+)-DTBZ) purification via solid-phase extraction (SPE) with combined cartridges to facilitate its widespread clinical application.Methods: A modified SPE purification method, employing Sep-Pak PS-2 and Sep-Pak C18 cartridges, was used for the preparation of 18F-FP-(+)-DTBZ. This method was compared to the purification method of high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and SPE with one cartridge, following quality control test and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in healthy volunteers and patients with parkinsn's disease (PD).Results: A SPE purification method integrating Sep-Pak PS-2 and Sep-Pak C18 cartridges was implemented successfully. The retention time of 18F-FP-(+)-DTBZ purified by HPLC, SPE with Sep-Pak PS-2, SPE with Sep-Pak C18, and SPE with combined use of Sep-Pak PS-2 and Sep-Pak C18 cartridges was 8.7, 8.8, 8.7, and 8.9 min, respectively. Fewest impurity peak was detected in 18F-FP-(+)-DTBZ purified by the SPE with combined use of Sep-Pak PS-2 and Sep-Pak C18 cartridges. This modified SPE purification method provided a satisfactory radiochemical yield of 29 ± 1.8% with radiochemical purity >99% and shortened synthesis time to 27 min. The brain uptake of 18F-FP-(+)-DTBZ purified by the modified SPE was comparable to that purified by HPLC in both healthy volunteers and PD patients.Conclusions: A SPE method integrating Sep-Pak PS-2 and Sep-Pak C18 cartridges for purification of 18F-FP-(+)-DTBZ may be highly suited to automatic synthesis for routine clinical applications, as it provides excellent radiochemical purity, high yield as well as operational simplicity.

[18F]6-Fluoro-N-[2-(diethylamino)ethyl]nicotinamide [18F]MEL050 is a novel nicotinamide-based radiotracer, designed to target random metastatic dissemination of melanoma tumours by targeting melanin. Preclinical studies suggest that [18F]MEL050 has an excellent potential to improve diagnosis and staging of melanoma. Here we report the radiochemical optimization conditions of [18F]MEL050 and its large scale automated synthesis using a GE FXFN automated radiosynthesis module for clinical, phase-1 investigation. [18F]MEL050 was prepared via a one-step synthesis using no-carrier added K[18F]F-Krytpofix® 222 (DMSO, 170°C, 5 min) followed by HPLC purification. Using 6-chloro-N-[2-(diethylamino)ethyl]nicotinamide as precursor, [18F]MEL050 was obtained in 40–46% radiochemical yield (non-decay corrected), in greater than 99.9% radiochemical purity and specific activity ranging from 240 to 325 GBq μmol–1. Total synthesis time including formulation was 40 min and [18F]MEL050 was stable (99.8%) in PBS for 6 h.
