Abstract

Abstract The novel compounds 1- 11 C-D-glucose, 1- 11 C-D-mannose, 1- 11 C-D-galactose, 2- 11 C-D-glucose, 2- 11 C-D-mannose and 2- 11 C-D-galactose which can be used in nuclear medicine to monitor the metabolism of glucose and galactose can be rapidly prepared by reaction of the appropriate aldose substrate with an alkali metal 11 C-labeled cyanide followed by reduction with a Raney alloy in formic acid.
