The development of 11C-alkylation reactions at carbon centres has largely been driven by transition metal-mediated
11
C-methylation reactions. Additionally, the synthesis of (chiral) amino acids by alkylation at the alpha-carbon of glycine derivative is also a com­monly used strategy for the formation of C─
11
C bonds.
7.4.3.5.1 Transition Metal–Mediated 11C-Methylation
Metal-mediated couplings between [11C]CH3I and appropriate organometallic reagents have been used extensively for Suzuki couplings have been applied for the synthesis of PET radiotracers, including
11
(-)-o -[
C]methylvesamicol (Figure7.35a) and [11C]cetrozole (Figure7.35b). Other cross­couplings, including the Negishi coupling, have also been reported but are used less frequently. The general mechanism for these cross-couplings (Figure7.35c) occurs as follows: the Pd(0) (usually in the presence of triarylphosphine ligands) undergoes oxidative addition into a C─X bond to generate Pd(II) species; then transmetallates with an appropriate coupling partner e.g. an organostannane or organoboron; and nally, reductive elimination regenerates the Pd(0), which is free to enter into another catalytic cycle. In the case of radiochemical cross-coupling, the alkyl halide ([ is the limiting reagent, and the Pd-reagent is used stoichiometrically; the catalytic cycle does not begin again, as all the [
The combination of trace amounts of [ coupling partners increases the rate of individual steps in the reaction cycle so that the reactions are complete in minutes rather than hours. The rate of the oxidative addition of Pd(0) into [
11
C]CH3I is the rate-determining step in the Suzuki reaction. Due to the large excess of Pd(0), the rate of this step is increased, providing the I intermediate rapidly. Maximum conversions are achieved when the intermediate is prepared before the addition of the organometallic coupling partner. In contrast, the transmetallation step is rate-determining for the Stille coupling. Here, the rate-determining step is accelerated by the large excess of the organostannane reagent. The reductive elimination step in Pd-mediated couplings is usually rapid.

7.4.3.5.2 Stille Coupling Reactions

C]CH3I was reported by Suzuki, Noyori, and Långström

C]CH3I[307]. Aryltrimethylstannanes were found
to be more reactive than their tributyl congeners; however, they promote the formation
11
of [
C]ethane and can also transfer a 12C-methyl group and thus reduce the molar activity of the nal product. Trimethylstannanes are also more toxic, requiring rigorous quality control, especially in the case of clinical/Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) produc­tions. The use of the sterically demanding P(o-tolyl)
ligand facilitates the transmetal-
3
lation and reductive elimination steps. The addition of CuCl is thought to generate an aryl-Cu intermediate that transfers the aryl group more rapidly than the aryl-Sn species, further accelerating the rate-limiting step. The optimized reaction therefore involved methylation of aryltributylstannanes using Pd at 60 °C for ve minutes, providing optimized method was used with [

The Stille coupling of electron-rich arenes and heteroarenes such as a protected
dopamine analogue[309] (Figure7.36b) and the fragment toward [
11
C]thiamine[310] (Figure7.36c) was achieved using a CuBr/CsF system[311, 312]. Electron-poor arenes such as the protected precursor to 5-[
11
C]methyl-6-methylquinazepine[313] (Figure7.36d) have also been successfully synthesised using the Stille coupling. Vinyltrialkylstan­nanes[311] and alkynyltrialkylstannanes[308, 314] have also been shown to be active in the Stille coupling, giving
11
C-methylated products in RCY >85% or 75%, respectively. Despite concerns over the toxicity of organostannanes, the wide functional group toler­ance of the reaction, illustrated by successful synthesis of the unprotected vesamicol derivative[315] (Figure7.36e) and [
11
C]zidovudine[316] (Figure7.36f), has

C-labelled
contributed to the application of the Stille coupling to the synthesis of a wide range of
11
C-labelled bioactive molecules.
The preparation of stannylated precursors for the Stille reaction remains a challenge.
To address this,
11
C-methylstannanes, which are able to react with more readily available
aryl or vinyl halides, were developed. Långström and colleagues reported the synthesis
11
of 5-[
C]methyl-1-aza-5-stanna-bicyclo[3.3.3]undecane in 20–90% RCY by reaction of
the chlorostannane with [
11
C]CH3Li (Figure7.37a)[317]. 5-[11C]Methyl-1-aza-5-stanna­bicyclo[3.3.3]undecane was shown to undergo ecient Stille coupling with a range of aryl halides, providing
11
C-methylstannate derived from Lappert’s stannane and more readily available [11C]CH3I
(Figure7.37b). TBAF-activated
11
C-methylated products in 9–90% RCY. Huiban etal. used a
11
C-methylstannate underwent an ecient Stille coupling with a series of bromoquinolines and halonaphthalenes at 120 °C in 63–78% RCY using Pd
(dba)3 in the absence of any ligand[312]. The tin by-product is less toxic than the
2
organotin by-products of the conventional Stille coupling. In a follow-up investigation, the authors compared the conventional Stille coupling with [ Stille coupling with the [
11
C]methylstannate toward the 11C-methylation of bioactive
11
C]CH3I with the modied
quinolines and quinolinamides. Radiochemical yields were found to be higher when using the
11
C-methylstannate in the case of [11C]SB222200, a NK-3 receptor antagonist. (Figure7.37b)[318]. Automation of the process resulted in even higher radiochemical purity (>99% vs. >95%) of the
11
C-methylated product.
7.4.3.5.3 Suzuki Coupling Reactions
The same report by Andersson etal. that described the rst Stille cross-coupling with
11
[
C]CH3I also described the rst Suzuki cross-coupling with [11C]CH3I[306].

C]Ethylphenyl)propionamide was synthesized in 90% crude and 49% isolated RCY at 90 °C for 5 minutes (Figure7.38e). Aryl-triuoroborates as the radiolabelling precursors have been used in the synthesis of [ for imaging of the synaptic vesicle protein SV2A (Figure7.38f)[326]. The boronic acid precursor can also be used; however, it results in the production of protodeborylated by-products. Protodeborylation is a common side reaction in Suzuki couplings, giving rise to analogues that are dicult to separate and can compete for the same binding site as the desired PET ligand. Using the triuoroborate precursor was found to signicantly reduce the amount of by-product formed. There is some debate as to whether the triuo­roborate truly undergoes the cross-coupling, or whether trace amounts of boronic acid are the reactive cross-coupling partner[327].

7.4.3.5.4 Negishi Coupling Reactions
Kealey etal. described the rapid, microwave-assisted synthesis of organozinc reagents for use in Negishi-type Pd-mediated Rieke zinc at 180 °C[328]. The organozinc reagent in THF was then cannulated into a second vial containing Pd(PPh the solution at room temperature. After ve minutes were obtained. Electron-poor substrates were slowest to react, requiring additional heating to 100–120 °C. The process was successfully automated, and an mGluR

C]MPEP was prepared in 26% RCY and with a molar activity of 46 GBq· μmol−1, as shown in Figure7.39a. In contrast to Stille and Suzuki cross-couplings, [ to a solution that already contained the organometallic reagent, simplifying further automation. The application of the traditional Negishi coupling is restricted by the harsh conditions needed (180 °C and a strong reductant) to prepare the reactive organozinc pre­cursor of a complex radiopharmaceutical.
