We report an improved synthesis of unlabeled (S)-iodozacopride, the radiolabeling of (S)-[125I]iodozacopride via deschloro-(S)-zacopride, and a re-evaluation of its affinity for the 5-HT3 receptor. Unlabeled (S)- iodozacopride was prepared in seven steps from 4-aminosalicylic acid via alkaline hydrolysis of its 4-acetamide derivative. Catalytic hydrogenation of (S)-iodozacopride gave deschloro-(S)-zacopride, identical to that obtained from (S)-3-amino-quinuclidine and 4-amino-2-metihoxybenzoic acid via its corresponding 1-imidazole derivative. Radioiodination to produce (S)- [125I]iodozacopride was accomplished by treatment of deschloro-(S)- zacopride with 5mCi sodium 125iodide and chloramine-T in hydrochloric acid. Purification of the reaction products using an HPLC system capable of detecting chlorinated side-products revealed a mixture of 2.1 mCi (1.3nmol) (S)-[125I]iodozacopride and (S)-zacopride (1.5 nmol). Saturation analysis of the binding of the purified (S)-[125I]iodozacopride to whole rat brain homogenates gave an estimated K(D) of 1.10±0.07 nM. As anticipated, this is approximately haft the K(D) reported for binding of racemic [125I]iodozacopride, and differs from the previously reported value by an order of magnitude. Analysis of the apparent binding affinity of a 1: 1 mixture of (S)-[125I]iodozacopride and (S)-zacopride suggests that the previous result may have been confounded by contamination of the product with unlabeled (S)-zacopride. Competition analysis of the displacement of (S)- [125I]iodozacopride binding by unlabeled (S)-iodozacopride and (S)- zacopride gave K(i) values of 0.95 and 0.21 nM, respectively.
