The synthesis of two novel radiolabelled estrogen derivatives, [125I](E)-3-methoxy-17alpha-iodovinylestra-1,3,5(10),6-tetraen-17beta-ol (E[125I]IVDE) and [125I](Z)-3-methoxy-17alpha-iodovinylestra-1,3,5(10),6-tetraen-17beta-ol (Z[125I]IVDE), was carried out aiming to study the influence of the introduction of a C6-C7 double bond on the biological properties of the estradiol molecule. 3-Methoxyestra-1,3,5(10),6-tetraen-17-one was synthesised starting from a suitably protected estrone and subsequently converted into the 17alpha-ethynyl derivative. The radioiodinated derivatives were stereoselectively formed by radioiododestannylation of the corresponding tributylstannyl precursors. The biodistribution of the novel [125I]iodovinylestradiol derivatives was evaluated in immature female mice. Biological data indicated that the Z-isomer, owing to its higher in vivo uptake by the target tissue, has the preferable configuration for further development of similar compounds for estrogen receptor detection.

In the title compound, pentacyclo[11.8.1.1(3,11).0(7,23).0(15, 20)]tricosa-3,5,7,9,11(23),15,17,19-octaen-22-one, C(23)H(20)O, the bicyclo[5.4.1]dodecan-12-one moiety takes a rigid conformation in which the seven- and eight-membered rings take chair and boat-boat forms, respectively. The molecule has a non-crystallographic mirror symmetry perpendicular to the benzene and naphthalene planes.
