The isomeric (17 alpha,20E)- and (17 alpha,20Z)-(iodovinyl)estradiol derivatives 3 and 6, and their no-carrier-added (nca) [125I]iodovinyl analogues, were tested for their relative target tissue retention and binding affinity for the estrogen receptor. The (iodovinyl)estradiols 3 and 6 were prepared via destannylation of the (17 alpha,20E)- and (17 alpha,20Z)-tributylstannyl precursors 2 and 4 with retention of configuration. Selective formation of the E or Z isomers 2 and 4 during the reaction of 17 alpha-ethynylestradiol 1a with tri-n-butyltin hydride was controlled by the presence or absence of the catalyst, the polarity of the solvent, and the reaction temperature. The nca [125I]iodovinyl analogues [125I]-3a and [125I]-6a were obtained in good radiochemical yield and high purity by treatment of 2a and 4a with [125I]NaI in the presence of H2O2 and chloroamine-T, respectively. Of the two isomeric iodovinyl derivatives 3 and 6, the 20Z isomer 6a exhibited the highest receptor binding affinity and the [125I]-6a gave the highest in vivo receptor-mediated target tissue uptake.

The effect of 2- and 4-fluoro substitution on the estrogen receptor-mediated tissue localization of radioiodinated 16 alpha-iodoestradiol (16 alpha-IE2) and its 11 beta-methoxy analogue (11 beta-OMe-16 alpha-IE2) was evaluated. Electrophilic substitution of estrone or 11 beta-methoxyestrone with N-fluoropyridinium salt gave the 2- and 4-fluoro derivatives which were subsequently converted to the 3,17 beta-enol diacetate and brominated to yield exclusively the 16 alpha-bromo analogues. Epimerization gave the corresponding 16 beta-bromoestrones which were reduced to the 17 beta-hydroxy derivatives. Halogen exchange with NaI or Na[125I]I provided the A-ring fluorinated 16 alpha-iodoestradiols. The 4-F analogue exhibited higher affinity for estrogen receptors than the corresponding 2-F analogue, and these differences were more pronounced at higher incubation temperatures. Biodistribution studies in immature female rats showed that 4-fluoro substitution had only a moderate effect on receptor-mediated tissue uptake of the parent molecules whereas 2-fluoro substitution resulted in strongly diminished tissue specificity. The lower target selectivity of the 2-F, compared to the 4-F, analogue correlates to some extent with their different receptor binding properties; however, the rate of catabolism may also be involved. Differences in blood clearance further accentuated the localization properties to yield particularly high uterus to blood ratios in the case of the 4-F-11 beta-OMe-16 alpha-IE2, suggesting the potential of the analog labeled with 123I as a radiopharmaceutical for receptor imaging in nuclear medicine. The isopotential maps of the fluorinated steroids, obtained via semiempirical computer modeling on the molecular structures, show striking differences between the 4-F and 2-F derivatives reflecting their varying biological properties.

Three new 125I-radioiodinated estrogens featuring a 13beta-ethyl instead of the natural 13beta-methyl group, i.e. 18-homoestradiols, were synthesized and evaluated as potential estrogen receptor imaging agents. The 16alpha-iodo-18-methylestradiol and the 125I-labeled analog were synthesized from the corresponding 16beta-bromo analog by the halogen-exchange method. The cis-bromohydrin precursor was obtained by bromination of an estrone enolacetate, followed by epimerization and reduction. The isomeric (17alpha,20E/Z)-iodovinyl-18-methylestradiols were prepared via the vinyltin intermediates. Treatment of 18-methyl-17alpha-ethynylestradiol with tri-n-butyltin hydride, in the presence of azobisisobutyronitrile as catalyst and heating at 90-100 degrees C afforded the (17alpha,20E)-tri-n-butylstannyl isomer as the major product. Changing the catalyst for triethyl borane, at room temperature, mainly gave the 20Z-isomer. The nca 125I-labeled analogs were obtained from their corresponding tin intermediates upon treatment with [125I]NaI in the presence of H2O2. The 16alpha-[125I]iodo- and isomeric (17alpha,20E/Z)-[125I]iodovinyl-18-methylestradiols were evaluated for estrogen receptor-mediated uterine uptake in immature female rats. Homologation of the C13-methyl group did improve the uterine uptake of the iodovinyl derivatives, but also increased blood retention, resulting in lower target uptake ratios. In the case of the 16alpha-iodo analog uterine retention decreased upon C13-homologation.
