Synthesis of P32Labeled Diisopropylphosphorofluoridate BY R. A. OOSTERBAAN AND J. VAN ROTTERDAM RECEIVED APRIL25, 1956

A method is described for the preparation of labeled diisopropylphosphorofluoridate in water or oil solution starting from radioactive phosphoric acid. The specific radioactivity amounts to 200 microcuries/mg.

Introduction The synthesis of P32labeled diisopropylphosphorofluoridate (DFP) of high specific activity (200 microcuries/mg.) has proved to be valuable in medical work; it has been used for the study of the metabolic fate of D F P and for the determination of plasma protein turnover and the life span of erythrocytes and Moreover the material has been used for studies with the purpose of collecting information on the chemical groups of esterases which are responsible for the enzymatic and D F P binding properties of these pr0teins.~-6 (1) J.

A number of methods for the synthesis of DFP7-lo and DFP32 11.12 have been published. These methods could not be used unmodified for our purpose. Either starting material of sufficient specific activity cannot be obtained readily or the methods are not designed for the desired microscale operation. The present method is based on the conversion of phosphoric acid, which is obtainable in carrier-free form, into P32and consequently into P3T13. The further synthesis is a micro-scale adaptation of Saunders' method, l1 according to the reaction scheme
