Synthesis of Tc-D,D-HMPAO and Tc-L,L-HMPAO and their comparison of chemical and biological properties

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 1999 Nov 15;9(22):3199-202. doi: 10.1016/s0960-894x(99)00557-0.

Abstract

Tc-D,D- and TC-L,L-HMPAO were synthesized. The stability of Tc-D,D- and TC-L,L-HMPAO in vitro is similar to that of d,l-isomers by the spectrophotometric and three strips methods. Cerebral uptake (%D in brain) for the L,L-isomer is higer than the D,D- and d,l-isomer in rats. Delayed studies shows that T-L,L-HMPAO reveals less washout and reflects a higher cerebral deposition properties than the D,D- and d,l-isomer.
