Peracetic Acid → 4-Iodobenzaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 5.2 μL sodium [123I] iodide (138.1 MBq) was added, ammonium acetate buffer (100 μL, pH 4, 0.2M), sodium [127I] iodide (51 μL, 10 mM solution in 0.01M sodium hydroxide, 5.1×10−7 moles), peracetic acid (11 μL, 50 mM solution, 5.5×10−7 moles) and 4-tributylstannyl benzaldehyde (100 μL, 200 μg, 2 mg/mL solution in acetonitrile, 5.06×10−7 moles). An additional 50 μL acetonitrile was added to aid solubility of the 4-tributylstannyl benzaldehyde, and the reaction mixture allowed to incubate at room temperature for approximately 20 minutes prior to HPLC analysis, which showed [123I]-4-iodobenzaldehyde (tR˜8 minutes, system A, Example 2) with an RCP of >90%. To the reaction mixture was added 1 mL acetonitrile and 10 mL water and the resulting solution loaded onto a tC-18 light cartridge (pre-treated with 2.5 mL methanol and 5 mL water). [123I]-4-iodobenzaldehyde was eluted with 0.5 mL 1:1 t-butanol:water in 48% yield (non-decay corrected).
