Iodobenzamide (IMB) labeled with either [ 11 C] or [ 125 I] was studied in mice and baboons. Pharmacological studies demonstrated an in vivo binding profile compatible with D 2 dopamine receptors. Mouse biodistribution studies with both [ 11 C]IMB and [ 125 I]IMB showed a similar brain distribution of radioactivity. Mouse [ 125 I]IMB studies with amphetamine and reserpine pretreatment suggested that IMB may be less susceptible to endogenous dopamine competition for D 2 receptor binding in vivo as compared to raclopride. Preliminary baboon studies showed haloperidol competition for IMB binding sites. © 1992 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
