The synthesis of methyl 15-(4-trimethylstannylphenyl)pentadecanoate (p
-SnPPA), a precursor for the regiospecific production of 15-(4-[I-123]
-iodophenyl)pentadecanoic acid, is described. The stannylated precurso
r is synthesized in six steps from 4-bromophenylacetylene in an overal
l yield of 16%. p-SnPPA reacts with N.C.A. [I-123]NaI in the presence
of peracetic acid to yield IPPA in 62% radiochemical yield following h
ydrolysis. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
