摘要:
                                A protocol applicable for the synthesis of an oseltamivir positron emission tomography (PET) tracer was developed. Acetylation of amine 3 with CH3COCl, followed by deprotection and aqueous workup, produced oseltamivir 4 from 3 within 10 min. The obtained 4 was sufficiently pure for PET studies. This method can be extended to PET tracer synthesis using (CH3COCl)-C-11. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
