- An Improved Total Synthesis of PET HSV-tk Gene Reporter Probe 9-(4-[ 18F]Fluoro-3-hydroxymethylbutyl)guanine ([18F]FHBG)
-
An improved total synthesis of [18F]FHBG starting from triethyl-1,1,2-ethanetricarboxylate and 2-amino-6-chloropurine is reported. [18F]FHBG was prepared by nucleophilic substitution of the appropriate precursor with [18F]KF/Kryptofix 2.2.2 followed by a quick deprotection reaction and purification with a simplified Silica Sep-Pak solid-phase extraction (SPE) method in 20-25% radiochemical yield.

Positron emission tomography (PET) herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSV-tk) gene reporter probes 9-[(3-[18F]fluoro-1-hydroxy-2-propoxy) methyl]guanine ([18F]FHPG) and 9-(4-[18F]fluoro-3- hydroxymethylbutyl)guanine ([18F]FHBG) were prepared by nucleophilic substitution of the appropriate tosylated precursors with [18F]KF/ Kryptofix 2.2.2 followed by a quick deprotection reaction and purification with a simplified dual Silica Sep-Pak solid-phase extraction (SPE) method in 15-30% radiochemical yield.

- Synthesis and Antiviral Activity of 9-purines
-
Alkylation of 2-amino-6-chloropurine with 5-(2-bromoethyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane (5) provided 2-amino-6-chloro-9-purine (6) in high yield.This aminochloropurine 6 readily converted to the antiviral acyclonucleoside 9-guanine (1) and to its 6-chloro (10), 6-thio (11), 6-alkoxy (12-17), 6-amino (20), and 6-deoxy (21) purine analogues.The guanine derivative 1 was converted to its xanthine analogue 9.Similarly, alkylation of 6-chloropurine with 5 provided a route to 8, the hypoxanthine analogue of 1.Of these 9-substituted purines, the guanine derivative 1 showed the highest activity against herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 in cell cultures, and in some tests it was more active than acyclovir, with no evidence of toxicity for the cells.A series of monoesters (30-33) and diesters (24-27, 29) of 1 were prepared, and some of these also showed antiherpes virus activity in cell cultures, the most active ester being the dihexanoate 27.

-
Alkylation of 2-amino-6-chloropurine with 5-(2-bromoethyl)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxan (7) and subsequent acid hydrolysis provides an improved procedure for synthesis of the antiviral acyclonucleoside 9-(4-hydroxy-3-hydroxymethylbut-1-yl)guanine (3).
