A convenient method to produce [14C]carbon monoxide and its application to the radiosynthesis of [carboxyl-14C]celivarone, [carboxyl-14C]SSR149744

Abstract

[carboxyl-14C]Celivarone was synthesised from barium [ 14C]carbonate with overall radiochemical yields in the range 49-53%. The synthetic route involves [14C]carbonylation methodology, which both decreased the number of synthetic steps and increased the yields obtained from previous synthetic routes.
