N-[C-11]-methyl-hydroxyfasudil was synthesized as a new potential radiotracer for rho-kinases (ROCKS) via a two-step one-pot radiosynthesis. The first step was the methylation of the precursor N-Boc-hydroxyfasudil-sodium salt/benzo-15-crown-5 complex with [C-11]methyl iodide. The second step involved deprotection of the tert-butoxycarbonyl protecting group. The radiochemical and chemical purities of N-[C-11]-methyl-hydroxyfasudil were >95% and specific radioactivity was 1565-2565 mCi/mu mol at the end of the synthesis. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
