Syntheses of carbon-11 labelled ornithine and lysine. Preliminary accumulation studies in rats with Walker 256 carcinosarcoma

Syntheses of carbon-11 labelled ornithine and lysine. Preliminary accumulation studies in rats with Walker 256 carcinosarcoma

Abstract

DL-[1-11C]ornithine and lysine have been synthesized by carboxylation of the corresponding alpha-lithioisocyanide with a radiochemical yield of up to 14% without correction for decay. The total preparation time is 50 min. Accumulation of both DL-[1-11C]ornithine and lysine in Walker 256 carcinosarcoma is observed, with a tumor/non-tumor ratio of 4.9 and 4.5 respectively, at 45 min after intravenous injection.
