Abstract

Herein a new (11) C radiolabelling strategy for the fast and efficient synthesis of thioureas and related derivatives using the novel synthon, (11) CS2 , is reported. This approach has enabled the facile labelling of a potent progesterone receptor (PR) agonist, [(11) C]Tanaproget, by the intramolecular reaction of the acyclic aminohydroxyl precursor with (11) CS2 , which has potential applications as a positron emission tomography radioligand for cancer imaging.<br /> (© 2015 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
