Abstract

A facile synthesis method for the preparation of [1–11C]butanol, a regional cerebral blood flow imaging agent, was developed. Using a solid phase extraction method, the highly polar and volatile molecule [1–11C]butanol was quickly concentrated, purified, and released as final product; boasting high radiochemical and chemical purities as well as high radiochemical yields. The final drug product was obtained as a sterile, pyrogen-free solution that conforms United States Pharmacopeia (USP) <823> requirements.
