Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a method for improving stability of non fluoridated sugar derivatives, and in particular glucose derivatives such as 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-2-O-trifluoromethanesulfonyl-ß-D-mannopyranose which are used as precursors for production of radiofluoridated sugar derivatives for use in in vivo imaging procedures such as positron emission tomography (PET). The method comprises storing the non fluoridated sugar derivative in an organic solvent. The resultant formulations of the non fluoridated sugar derivative and cassettes for automated synthesis apparatus comprising the same are also claimed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of storing 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-2O-trifluoromethanesulfonyl-β-D-mannopyranose (mannose triflate), the method comprising dissolving mannose triflate in acetonitrile to form a solution and storing the solution in a sealed container for subsequent storage, wherein the solution consists of mannose triflate and acetonitrile, wherein the stability of the mannose triflate stored in the acetonitrile is better than the stability of mannose triflate stored without the acetonitrile, and wherein the acetonitrile has a water content between 100 ppm and 50000 ppm. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the concentration of the mannose triflate in the solution is between 10 mg/mL to 18 mg/mL. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sealed container is a septum-sealed vial. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the acetonitrile has a water content of approximately 600 ppm. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the acetonitrile has a water content between 100 ppm and 600 ppm.
