The radiosynthesis and in vivo evaluation of 5-(5-(6-[¹¹C]methyl-3,6-diazabicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-3-yl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-indole [¹¹C]rac-(1), a potential PET tracer for α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (α7-nAChR), are described. Syntheses of the nonradioactive standard rac-1 and corresponding desmethyl precursor 7 were achieved in several reaction steps. Radiomethylation of 7 with [¹¹C]CH₃I afforded [¹¹C]rac-1 in an average radiochemical yield of 30±5% (n=5) with high radiochemical purity and an average specific radioactivity of 444±74GBq/μmol (n=5). The total synthesis time was 30min from end-of-bombardment. Biodistribution studies in mice showed that [¹¹C]rac-1 penetrates the blood–brain barrier and specifically labels neuronal α7-nAChRs.
