The utility of commercial radiosynthetic modules to prepare [ 11 C]‐radiotracers using the captive solvent ‘LOOP’ method is demonstrated with the common radiosynthons [ 11 C]‐iodomethane and [ 11 C]‐methyl triflate. Several widely utilized radiotracers are prepared by this technique to demonstrate the versatility of the method. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
