Design, synthesis and 64Cu labeling of fatty acid analogs containing dithiosemicarbazone chelate.
For the development of 62Cu labeled fatty acid analogs, two fatty acid analogs, containing dithiosemicarbazone (DTS) molecule as the 62Cu coordinating site, were designed and synthesized: a fatty acid analog containing DTS molecule at the omega-position, (a) the 12,13-dioxotetradecanoic acid di(N-methyl-thiosemicarbazone) (FA-DTS), and an omega-phenyl fatty acid analog containing DTS molecule at the para-position, (b) the p-carboxyundecylphenylglyoxal-di (N-methylthiosemicarbazone] (PFA-DTS). FA-DTS was synthesized by the reaction of ethyl diethoxyacetate with ethyl 11-bromonundecanate by successive decarboxylation and hydrolysis and final condensation with N-methylthiosemicarbazide. PFA-DTS was synthesized by the Friedel-Craft acylation of ethyl 11-phenylundecanate, selenium oxidation of the acetophenone derivative, followed by the condensation with N-methylthiosemicarbazide. Radiolabeling of FA-DTS and PFA-DTS with [64Cu]copper acetate was simple, rapid and quantitative. When injected into mice, both compounds were distributed and retained in the myocardium. These results offer a good basis for further development of 62Cu labeled fatty acid analogs.
