Figure 2 Radiosynthesis of 4’-[methyl-11C]-thiothymidine. The imaging agent 11C-4DST was synthesized by methylation of 5-tributylstannyl-4'-thio-2'-deoxyuridine via a palladium-mediated Stille cross-coupling reaction with 11C-methyl iodide. 11C-4DST: 4’-[methyl-11C]-thiothymidine; DMF: N,N-Dimethylformamide; P(o-tolyl)3: Tri(o-tryl)phosphine; Pd2(dba)3: Tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium(0).
