Procedure

FIG. 6 shows HPLC traces of a reaction mixture resulting from the incubation of dopamine with dopamine β-hydroxylase; (a) reaction at 1 min; (b) reaction at 1 h; and (c) coinjection of b with racemic NE. In less than 1 hour, a peak corresponding to (-)-NE (retention time 6.7 minutes) appeared when the enzyme mixture which contained dopamine as substrate was injected onto a chiral HPLC column; (+)-NE was not observed (FIG. 6). FIG. 7 shows HPLC traces of a reaction mixture resulting from the incubation of 6-fluorodopamine with dopamine β-hydroxylase: (a) reaction at 2 min; (b) reaction at 1 h; and (c) coinjection of b with racemic 6-FNE. An analogous result was obtained when 6-fluorodopamine was used as a substrate; a new HPLC peak at 18 minutes appeared (FIG. 7). Thus UV peak coeluted with the first radioactive peak collected from 6-[18F]FNE. Thus the levorotatory isomers of both NE and 6-FNE elute before their respective dextrorotatory enantiomers. This order of elution was also recently reported by Maeda et al., Appl. Radiat. Isot., 41, 463 (1990) the disclosure of which is incorporated by reference herein, for [11C]octopamine enantiomers when a Crownpak CR(+) HPLC column was used.
