Methods and apparatus for facilitating the synthesis of compounds in a nonflow-through device are presented. Application of the nonflow-through methods and microfluidic devices to the synthesis of radiolabeled compounds is described. These methods and apparatus enable the introduction of a pressurized gas through a tangential slit into a vortex reactor of the nonflow-through device, while one or more liquids are delivered to the reaction chamber through the same or different inlet ports. The introduction of the pressurized gas produces a cyclonic motion of the mixture within the reactor. Such a mechanism may be used to facilitate the evaporation of various liquids within the reactor at lower temperatures, thus reducing the production of unwanted byproducts that are associated with the use of high temperatures. In addition, thorough mixing of various liquids may be effected rapidly while allowing chemical reactions to take place efficiently within the vortex reactor. |

The use of vinyl sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones in synthetic chemistry for the production of a wide variety of materials is well known. For example, phenyl vinyl sulfides, sulfoxides and sulfones have been used for the synthesis of important heterocycles, in combinatorial chemistry and as Diels-Alder adducts. Although these compounds have been used extensively for a variety of applications, the isotopically labeled versions have not been reported. A simple route for the isotopically labeled production of these important building blocks has been developed. |

Radical trap in fluoridation of iodonium salt |

Decomposition of iodonium salts by a free radical process has been identified as a significant factor in the observed yield variability of fluoridation reactions using said iodonium salts. Accordingly, the inclusion of a free radical trap in the reaction mixture blocks the radical chain decomposition pathway for iodonium salts such that only the reaction leading to fluoridation can occur and the yield of aryl fluoride becomes high and reproducible. The reaction may also be carried out on solid phase. In both the solution and the solid phase the preferred method of the present invention is radiofluoridation. |

This invention pertains to methods of [11C]-radiolabelling “phenothiazine” and “phenothiazine-like” compounds, which have a pendant group (which is a primary amino group; a cationic primary imino group; a secondary amino group; a cationic secondary imino group; a primary imino group; or a secondary imino group), by reaction with [11C]methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (CF3SO2O11CH3), also known as [11C]methyl triflate. This reaction converts the pendant group into a [11C]methyl-labelled pendant group. The resulting [11C]-radiolabelling product is useful, for example, as an in vivo positron emission tomography (PET) tracer, for example, for patients suffering from melanoma, the most serious form of skin cancer, and tauopathy (e.g., Alzheimer's disease). The present invention also pertains to the resulting [11C]-radiolabelling products, compositions comprising them, their use in methods of (e.g., PET) imaging, their use in methods of medical treatment and diagnosis, etc. |
