[摘要]：We have developed a novel F-18 prosthetic ligand named fluoro-PEG-benzaldehyde (FPBA) 1. [(18)F]-FPBA 1 is formed in situ from its radiolabeled precursor [(18)F]6. Compound 6 is efficiently synthesized in four steps starting from commercially available 6-bromo-3-pyridine carbaldehyde 2. [(18)F]-FPBA was evaluated as a prosthetic ligand to radiolabel three cyclic peptides bearing an aminooxy functional group at the N-terminus position. Acetal [(18)F] 6 is purified by either solid-phase extraction (SPE) or reverse-phase HPLC with the overall radiochemical yields (RCY) and radiochemical purity (RCP) in very close agreement. The SPE purification process has the advantage of shorter reaction times (71-87 min for entire reaction sequence), while the use of the reverse-phase HPLC purification process allows the use of up to fifty times less of the expensive synthetic peptides (similar to 50 nmol) in the oxime coupling reaction. We have demonstrated an efficient methodology in the production of [(18)F]-FPBA 1 and demonstrated its use as a prosthetic ligand for the labeling of peptides possessing an aminooxy functional group.
