title: omega-Iodophenyl fatty acids: a convenient method of radioiodination.
abstract: A solid-phase radioiodination technique for omega-iodophenyl fatty acids using ammonium sulfate is described. The radioiodinations are regioselective, high in yield (95%), short in reaction time (1 h) and capable of yielding high specific activity products although at lower yields. Purification is exceptionally simple: a single passage through an ion exchange column to remove unreacted I- is all that is required. Syntheses of several omega-iodophenyl fatty acids are also described.
