Carbon-11-dl-tryptophan has been produced from 11C-cyanide using a modified Bücherer-Strecker technique for synthesis and a high-pressure liquid chromatographic system for purification. More than 80 preparations have been run with an average radiochemical yield of 50% and synthesis and purification times of about 28 min. These modifications have significantly increased the level of 11C-tryptophan activity which is available for clinical use per mCi of 11C-cyanide. © 1981.
