To support the development of a reactive metabolite strategy, the preparation of several radiolabelled compounds such as [ 14 C] Ticlopidine was required. In this report, we describe a facile and rapid synthesis of [ 14 C] Ticlopidine starting from [ 14 C] carbon dioxide. The compound was radiolabelled in the 2‐chloromethyl portion of the molecule with a specific activity of 53.4 mCi/mmol and with a radiochemical purity of 98.5%. Storage stability was best as the hydrochloride salt in an ethanol solution. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
