Preparation of 99m Tc-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile

  • 1. Office of Atomic Energy for Peace, Bangkok (Thailand)

Description

Preparation of 99mTc-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile (99mTc-MIBI), the myocardial imaging agent, has been studied. MIBI was synthesized from the condensation of 2-methylallylamine hydrochloride and ethylformate to obtain N-(2-methyl allyl) formamide followed by methoxylation and demercuration reactions to get methoxy isobutyl formamide then dehydrated the compound to obtain the product, MIBI. The lyophilized kit of MIBI was prepared and labelled with 99mTc. The radiochemical purity of the labelled kit was greater than 97%. Biodistribution in experimental animals is going to be studied
