Phenylpiperidinyl-octahydro-benzo[1,4]oxazines represent a new class of conformationally restrained vesamicol analogues. Derived from this morpholine-fused vesamicol structure, a new fluorine-18-labeled 4-fluorobenzoyl derivative ([18F]FBMV) was synthesized with an average specific activity of 75 GBq/μmol and a radiochemical purity of 99%. The radiolabeling method included an exchange reaction of a 4-nitro group of the precursor by fluorine-18, a reduction procedure to eliminate excess of the nitro compound, followed by a high-performance liquid chromatography purification. [18F]FBMV demonstrates (i) a moderate lipophilic character with a logDpH7.0 1.8±0.10; (ii) a considerable binding affinity to the vesicular acetylcholine transporter (VAChT) (Ki=27.5 nM), as determined using PC12 cells transfected with a VAChT cDNA, and a low affinity to σ1,2 receptors (Ki >3000 nM); (iii) a good uptake into the rat and pig brains; (iv) a typical accumulation in the VAChT-containing brain regions; and (v) an approximately 20% reduction in cortical tracer binding after a specific cholinergic lesion using 192IgG-saporin.[18F]FBMV exhibits another PET marker within the group of vesamicol derivatives that demonstrates potentials in imaging brain cholinergic deficits, while its usefulness in clinical practice must await further investigation.
