Abstract
Two S-[18F]fluoroalkylated diarylguanidines were synthesized and evaluated in vitro as potential tracers for imaging of N-methyl-d-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) with positron emission tomography (PET). [18F]1 and [18F]10 were synthesized by [18F]fluoroethylation and [18F]fluoromethylation of the thiol precursor 6, respectively. [18F]1 is a promising candidate NMDAR PET tracer, with low nanomolar affinity for the NMDA PCP-site, high selectivity and moderate lipophilicity.
