Abstract

(±)‐1‐(2‐bromo‐4,5‐dimethoxybenzyl)‐7‐hydroxy‐6‐methoxy‐2‐[11C]‐methyl‐1,2,3,4‐tetrahydroisoquinoline, (HCJA‐69024, a selective ligand for the D1 receptor was prepared by N‐alkylation of (±)N‐desmethyl A‐69024 with [11C]methyl iodide in DMF. The radiotracer was purified by semi‐preparative reverse‐phase HPLC. The average specific activity was 1950 mCi/μmol calculated at end‐of‐synthesis (EOS). The average time of synthesis including formulation was 20 minutes.
