Abstract

3-[1H-Imidazol-4-yl]propyl 4-fluorobenzyl ether (fluoroproxyfan), a potential histamine H₃ receptor ligand, was labeled with ¹⁸F for clinical PET studies. The synthesis involved the O-alkylation of 3-(1 -triphenylmethyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)propanol with 4-[¹⁸F]fluorobenzyl bromide in the presence of silver triflate and a non-nucleophilic amine base. 4-[¹⁸F]Fluoroproxyfan was obtained within 100 min from the end of bombardment (EOB) in 10% radiochemical yield (decay corrected to EOB) with a radiochemical purity > 99% and a specific activity >150 GBq/μmol.
